Yves Marevéry - Jane Marnac dans ‘Les jolies filles de Gottenberg’ de Georges Grossmith et Berman
Close

Yves Marevéry was a French cartoonist born on October 7, 1888 in Paris, where he died on October 11, 1914.

Yves Marevéry was the son of Léon Lionel Marévéry, a medical doctor, and Antoinette Aline Duval.

He drew actors during matinees at the Comédie-française. Encouraged by Abel Faivre of L'Assiette au beurre, he exhibited at the Salon des humoristes in 1906. L'art et la mode published his drawings, and he became the paper's caricaturist. He also contributed to other newspapers, such as L'Officiel des théâtres, L'Intransigeant, Le Radical and L'Indiscret.

Thanks to Georges Feydeau, who asked him to sketch his sets, and Armand Berthez, director of the Théâtre des Capucines, he gained a foothold in the entertainment world. In 1911, exhibitions at the Théâtre des Variétés and the Gil Blas Salon established his talent. He was commissioned to design book covers and sheet music, and produced posters for Albert Brasseur, Nina Myral, Edouard de Max and Georgette Delmarès, as well as advertisements.

In 1913, he was asked to organize silhouette-projections of his drawings for the revue Tu m'fais rougir, at the Moulin-Rouge. In 1914, Marevéry suffered from poorly treated influenza, too weak to be drafted, and died at his home in rue Verniquet on October 10, 1914, aged 26. He left behind a series of silhouettes and caricatures of the theater's most prominent personalities.
