Tivoli Waux Hall / Bal de Nuit. 1872.
One of Chéret's earliest lithographs, this design promotes the spectacles of Tivoli Waux Hall, a dance hall with a predominantly young clientele from the nearby trade schools and commercial establishments. Chéret designed several posters for the venue between 1872 and 1885; this one features a seductive woman in Harlequin-style dress with Punchinello on her left and a Pierrot on her right. This was truly a "Bal de Nuit:" the excitement started at 9:30pm and went on to 5am. Rare!

Printer: Imp. J. Chéret, Paris
