"Divan Japonais" is a renowned lithograph created by the French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in 1892-1893. This work is a quintessential example of Lautrec's mastery in capturing the vibrant nightlife of Paris during the Belle Époque. The lithograph was commissioned as a promotional poster for the Divan Japonais, a popular café-concert located in the Montmartre district, which was a hub for artists, writers, and performers of the time.

The composition of "Divan Japonais" is notable for its dynamic use of line and color, as well as its innovative approach to advertising. The poster features three prominent figures: Jane Avril, a famous can-can dancer and a frequent subject of Lautrec's work, is seated in the foreground. She is depicted with her characteristic red hair and elegant demeanor. To her left is Edouard Dujardin, a writer and critic, who is shown in profile, engrossed in the performance. In the background, on stage, is the singer Yvette Guilbert, identifiable by her long black gloves, which became her trademark. Interestingly, Guilbert's face is not shown, emphasizing her iconic gloves and adding a sense of mystery to her persona.

Lautrec's use of bold outlines and flat areas of color reflects the influence of Japanese ukiyo-e prints, which were highly fashionable in Europe at the time. This stylistic choice not only aligns with the name of the café but also highlights Lautrec's innovative approach to graphic design. The poster's composition directs the viewer's eye through the scene, creating a sense of depth and movement that captures the lively atmosphere of the venue.

"Divan Japonais" is celebrated not only for its artistic merit but also for its role in the evolution of modern advertising. Lautrec's ability to blend fine art with commercial appeal set a new standard for poster design and solidified his reputation as a pioneer in the field. Today, this lithograph remains a significant work in the history of art, reflecting the cultural vibrancy of late 19th-century Paris and the enduring legacy of Toulouse-Lautrec's artistic vision.
