Toulouse-Lautrec "Moulin Rouge La Goulue "Masquerade"" (from Les Affiches Illustrées)
On this masked night, the dancer La Goulue shakes up Paris...
"Moulin Rouge La Goulue" by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864–1901) is a representative poster of the 1890s, depicting the performance of La Goulue, a dancer who was all the rage at the Parisian cabaret "Moulin Rouge."
This work is one of the lithographs produced by Toulouse-Lautrec himself during his lifetime, based on his famous large poster of the same name, and there are two versions, a "normal version" and a "masquerade version", as determined by the lettering at the bottom. This work is the "masquerade" version, and is inscribed with the words "Les Mercredis et Samedis BAL MASQUÉ (Masquerade every Wednesday and Saturday)".
The black silhouettes in the background and the bold colors of red, yellow, and white convey the dynamism of the cancan and the heat of the Paris night. This work is an original lithograph included in "Les Affiches Illustrées."
