A very large advertising board originally by French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec of the caberet show titled 'Ambassadeurs'. Toulouse-Lautrec used flat, bold colors and forms to create this stunning poster of Aristide Bruant, a popular Parisian cabaret singer. When the "Ambassadeurs," one of the largest café-concerts of the day, engaged Bruant to perform, he insisted that Toulouse-Lautrec make this advertisement of his show. Bruant was known for his use of street slang and rowdiness on stage, and Toulouse-Lautrec successfully captured Bruant's commanding personality in this poster. Rendered in bright colours.
