Jane Avril

Item # 2475452

de Toulouse-Lautrec, Henri

<p>Lautrec's graphic posters-for performers, like Jane Avril, or dance halls, like the Moulin Rouge-embody the ebullient, frenetic spirit of the nightlife in fin-de-siecle Paris. Avril, a lifelong friend of the artist, commissioned this print to advertise her cabaret show at the Jardin de Paris in 1893. Lautrec's bold composition is characterized by a radically skewed perspective, severe cropping, flattened forms, and sinuous lines-such as those describing Avril's frilly costume. The cancan kick of Avril's leg, one of her signature dance moves, finds a formal echo in the vertical thrust of the double-bass, gripped by an unseen musician. To create this print, Lautrec used several lithographic stones, one for each color-inky black, acidic orange, yellow, and green.</p>
