HENRI de TOULOUSE-LAUTREC, (French, 1864-1901), Divan
HENRI de TOULOUSE-LAUTREC
(French, 1864-1901)
Divan Japonais
lithograph in colors on wove paper
sight: 30 1/4 x 23 1/2 in., frame: 39 1/4 x 32 in.
Provenance: Noted architect and interior designer Ernst Schwadron (1896-1979); by descent in his family.
Other Notes: The Divan Japonais was a café-concert frequented by Toulouse Lautrec at 75 rue des Martyrs, Paris. This poster for the establishment is particularly noteworthy, as it is the only example of Lautrec's posters that shows both Jane Avril and Yvette Guilbert in the same image. Here, Guilbert stands on the stage on which she began her career, identified by her iconic long black gloves, while fellow performer Avril sits as a spectator alongside Edouard Dujardin.
Condition Report: Condition: Mounted within shadowbox frame, not examined out of frame. Staning and mold visible upon close examination.
