No, it's not incorrect adjectival placement. Brush up your vocabulary with a bit of French slang with an idiom that will be very useful in the near future.

Haha, you obviously know your French! Hilariously depicted. Is it a woodcut print?
The rabbit reminds me slightly of the beloved Mummins... Maybe I am reading to much for the children... But lovely:)
Gerrie, it is a color lithograph signed by the artist in pencil. At one time there was no title; now it is labeled "Le diable au corps." I'm pretty sure I never learned this in six years of French. That's why I read French fashion magazines!
Kristin, interesting comment on the visual style. However, mothers luck up their daughters when they see a "chaud lapin" running around.
In France the mothers would lock themselves up with their daughters when such a rabbit is running around.
Gerrie - touche!
