{"product_id":"henri-de-toulouse-lautrec-the-clown-cha-u-kao-fine-art-print","title":"Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec — The Clown Cha-U-Kao | Fine Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eSeen from behind in a green-walled room, a performer in a white wig tied with a yellow ribbon reaches behind her back to fasten her costume. A huge ruffle of yellow tulle spreads from the edge of her black bodice over a deep blue skirt. A red sofa runs along the bottom, a glass and plate stand on a small table at the left, and a pale frame above holds a grey-haired man in a dark coat. The signature and 95 sit at the lower right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCha-U-Kao was a dancer and clown at the Nouveau Cirque and the Moulin Rouge; her stage name is a phonetic play on chahut, an acrobatic dance derived from the cancan, and chaos. Where the artist's other pictures of her show her in performance, this painting on card offers a more private view, in her dressing room or a private room. It was bequeathed by Count Isaac de Camondo in 1911.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: oil on cardboard, 1895, Musée d'Orsay, Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHenri 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
