Husb. and I are designing a poster for our annual drag pageant and are seeking an image of Minerva in the style of those French bistro posters. If not Minerva, any forte woman will do. If anyone feels like flexing some Web-fu muscle, any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Not quite "French Bistro," but from the same confluence of the decorative and fine arts:

Also, for a great variety, check this shit out.
Especially the "ALGUMAS REPRESENTAÇÕES" page.

You know, with a little photoshopping, I bet you could turn any of these into a bistro-poster-style image.

Probably too much. I stop now.
