The “Estampes Décoratives” were published by the printer G. de Malherbe beginning in 1896.
They consisted of five pairs, each pair of identical dimensions, depicting beautiful women surrounded by flowers and foliage. The most spectacular were “Danger” and “Meditation”.
Between 1896 and 1898, Eugène Grasset exhibited six of his “Decorative Prints”, two at a time at each exhibition of La Libre Esthétique, and in 1898 he presented six lithographs at the first exhibition of the Vienna Secession.
In the 1970s, the American dealer and collector Bob Walker owned all ten original watercolors
which had served as models for the lithographs.

Tristan Klingsor, Louis Dejean, L’Art Décoratif, n. 39, December 1901, Plaster model illustrated on p. 110. “Souvent même ces corps, Louis Dejean se plaît à les envelopper dans les amples manteaux qui laissent seulement deviner le mouvement : voici sa parisienne au chapeau à plumes, En promenade et troussant sa robe sous le long collet qui tombe jusqu’au genoux”
Marcel Nicolle, La sculpture aux Salons, Art et Décoration, July 1901, p. 14 : “Saisir la femme contemporaine en sa vie, en ses allures, en ses atours ; interpréter l’actuelle Parisienne en mignonnes statuettes, comme les coroplastes de Tanagra nous ont transmis les élégances antiques de la Boétie, tel paraît être le projet de M. Dejean, et qu’il réalise avec bonheur; voici la Jeune femme à sa toilette si joliment déhanchée, et la voilà mélancolique, puis encore à la Promenade, avec cette démarche si fidèlement notée, enfin Sortant du bal, toute pleine d’une majesté amusante”
