"Divan Japonais" is a renowned lithograph poster created by the French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in 1892-1893. This artwork is a quintessential example of Toulouse-Lautrec's ability to capture the vibrant and dynamic atmosphere of Parisian nightlife during the Belle Époque. The poster was commissioned to advertise the reopening of the Divan Japonais, a popular café-concert located in the Montmartre district of Paris, which was known for its eclectic performances and bohemian clientele.

The composition of "Divan Japonais" is notable for its innovative use of line, color, and perspective, which were influenced by Japanese ukiyo-e prints, a style that had a significant impact on many European artists of the time. The poster features three prominent figures: the famous can-can dancer Jane Avril, who is seated in the foreground; the critic Édouard Dujardin, who is seated beside her; and the singer Yvette Guilbert, who is performing on stage in the background. Avril is depicted with her characteristic red hair and black dress, while Dujardin is shown in a suit and bowler hat, both figures rendered with Toulouse-Lautrec's distinctive, fluid lines.

The background of the poster is dominated by the silhouette of Yvette Guilbert, recognizable by her long black gloves, a trademark of her stage persona. The use of bold, flat areas of color and the striking contrast between the figures and the background create a sense of depth and movement, drawing the viewer's eye across the scene. Toulouse-Lautrec's masterful integration of text and image in "Divan Japonais" exemplifies his skill as a graphic designer and his ability to convey the essence of the Parisian entertainment scene.

"Divan Japonais" is not only a significant work within Toulouse-Lautrec's oeuvre but also an important piece in the history of poster art. It reflects the cultural and artistic milieu of late 19th-century Paris and continues to be celebrated for its artistic innovation and historical significance.
