"Ballooning: Leona Dare' poster, 1890" is a prime example of French poster art that originated during the Belle Époque and was created by prominent poster artist, Jules Cheret. This poster captures a performing act by Leona Dare, an American acrobat and aerial performer, characterized by her ascend atop a hot-air balloon while executing her daring stunts. She was recognized for these unique feats during the late 19th century which eventually lead her to achieve renown in Europe.

The poster vividly illustrates the excitement of such performance acts that were increasingly popular during the period. Cheret, known as the father of the modern poster, has embellished this piece with dynamic colors and lines influencers by the Art Nouveau movement, which sought to incorporate artistic impressions in everyday objects. The main figure, Dare, is pictured gracefully poised against the backdrop of a brightly colored balloon in the sky, with the name 'Leona Dare' prominently displayed, thus, communicating the adventure and appeal associated with such performances.

Cheret's work, like the Ballooning: Leona Dare' poster, combines aesthetic appeal with commercial advertising and is significant in the context of the emergence of visual advertisement and poster art during the end of the 19th century. This specific poster gives an insight into the era's societal fascination with pioneering feats in entertainment and exploration, marking it as a significant piece of historical visual culture.
