The poster, featuring a rooster symbolising France with a rising sun representing Japan in the background, reflects the essence of the Franco-Japanese Society of Paris. The Franco-Japanese Society of Paris was an organisation established in 1896 to foster cultural, intellectual, and diplomatic relations between France and Japan. It aimed to strengthen ties between the two nations, particularly in the realms of art, literature, and politics, during a period when both countries were developing closer relations. By the 1930s, it had largely ceased to function as an active organisation.
