"At the Moulin Rouge: The Clowness Cha-U-Kao" is a painting by French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, created around 1895. The work is part of a series of paintings and posters Toulouse-Lautrec made of the Moulin Rouge, a famous Parisian nightclub that was a popular entertainment spot during the Belle Époque. The painting is a vibrant depiction of the Parisian nightlife and the bohemian atmosphere that characterized the Montmartre district at the end of the 19th century.

The subject of the painting, Cha-U-Kao, was a well-known performer at the Moulin Rouge and other Parisian cabarets. Her stage name is derived from the Japanese words "chahut" (an acrobatic dance known for its high kicks, which was a precursor to the can-can) and "chaos," reflecting the uproarious, lively acts she was known for. Cha-U-Kao was one of Toulouse-Lautrec's favorite models, and she is portrayed in this work as a clown, a role she often assumed in her performances.

In "At the Moulin Rouge: The Clowness Cha-U-Kao," Toulouse-Lautrec captures the essence of Cha-U-Kao's character and the exuberant atmosphere of the Moulin Rouge. The painting is characterized by its bold use of color, dynamic brushstrokes, and the artist's keen ability to convey movement and emotion. Toulouse-Lautrec's work is often noted for its candid portrayal of the lives of performers, the demimonde, and the marginalized sectors of Parisian society.

The painting is a testament to Toulouse-Lautrec's innovative style, which combined elements of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism with the graphic qualities of Japanese woodblock prints and the emerging Art Nouveau movement. His work at the Moulin Rouge, including this painting, contributed to the artist's reputation as a chronicler of Parisian nightlife and a pivotal figure in the development of modern art.

"At the Moulin Rouge: The Clowness Cha-U-Kao" is held in the collection of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to be an important piece representing the vibrant cultural scene of late 19th-century Paris and the innovative artistic legacy of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.
