A woman in a plumed hat and fur wrap sits beside a bespectacled man

A blonde woman in a wide black hat topped with a dark feather plume wears a light, fluffy wrap. Beside her, an older man in a black coat and top hat, wearing pince-nez glasses and a yellow flower in his lapel, leaning toward her. The pair sit against a salmon-pink ground crossed by a diagonal gold bar. Lettering around the scene advertises the Ault & Wiborg Company.

The original: a color lithograph on cream wove paper, 1896. The Art Institute of Chicago.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864–1901) made the poster an art form. From 1891 his lithographs for the Moulin Rouge, Aristide Bruant, Jane Avril and the Divan Japonais turned Montmartre's performers into silhouettes and flat planes of colour learned from Japanese prints, and they were pasted across Paris by the thousand. He drew the cabarets, circuses and brothels of the city with unsentimental affection. His prints are held by the Musée Toulouse-Lautrec in Albi, the Bibliothèque nationale de France and the Museum of Modern Art.
