This poster, designed in 1896, advertises a troupe of cancan dancers led by "Mademoiselle Eglantine," capturing four performers in mid-kick with the bold, flattened silhouettes and confident line that made Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec the era's foremost poster artist. Commissioned to promote the troupe's engagement in London, it reflects his ability to condense a lively stage performance into a few decisive graphic shapes, readable at a glance from across a street. Toulouse-Lautrec's dance-hall posters remain touchstones of Belle Époque graphic design.
Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.
