"Lady Clown Cha-U-Kao" is a painting by the French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, created in the late 19th century. The work is part of a series of paintings and drawings by Toulouse-Lautrec that depict the bohemian nightlife of Paris, particularly the Montmartre district, which was known for its cabarets, dance halls, and circuses. Cha-U-Kao, whose name is derived from the Japanese words for "laughter" and "chaos," was a popular clown and entertainer at the Moulin Rouge and Nouveau Cirque.

Toulouse-Lautrec was fascinated by the colorful characters of Montmartre, and he often portrayed the performers and patrons of its entertainment venues with empathy and a keen eye for their humanity. In "Lady Clown Cha-U-Kao," the artist captures the subject in her performance attire, characterized by flamboyant costumes and bold makeup that were part of her clown persona. The painting is notable for its vibrant color palette and the dynamic representation of Cha-U-Kao's expressive posture and demeanor, which conveys both the energy of her performance and a sense of her individual personality.

As with many of Toulouse-Lautrec's works, "Lady Clown Cha-U-Kao" reflects the influence of Japanese prints and the Post-Impressionist movement, with its emphasis on strong outlines, flat areas of color, and unconventional perspectives. The painting is also significant for its portrayal of a female performer in a profession that was often male-dominated, highlighting the changing roles of women in the entertainment industry during the Belle Époque.

"Lady Clown Cha-U-Kao" is held in the collection of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, and it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and as a window into the vibrant cultural scene of fin-de-siècle Paris.
