Cat. 94 : "As early as 1900, Octave Maus recognized that "it is easy to discover certain analogies between the posters of Privat Livemont and those of Mucha...Perhaps the investigation, far from harming Mr. Privat Livemont, would be favorable to the Brussels artist, whose first posters date back to 1890, that is to say, to a time when the name of Mucha was unknown." Réjane Bargiel - Harry, Christophe Zagrodzki. The Book of the Poster. The Book of the Poster. Editions Alternatives 1985. Page 36. Ill. 16 : "Privat Livemont elaborates an art close to that of Mucha. His style is however freer, visibly closer to the Symbolists, and his palette can be more varied..." Yolande Wittamer. Catalog of the exhibition Les Affiches de la Belle Epoque at the castle of Fraiture-en-Condroz. 1961. Page 80. Plate XXV. N°234.
