Painting Description
"Moulin Rouge, La Goulue" is a renowned lithographic poster created by the French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in 1891. This iconic work was commissioned by the owners of the Moulin Rouge, a famous cabaret in Paris, to promote the venue and its star performer, La Goulue, whose real name was Louise Weber. Toulouse-Lautrec's poster is celebrated for its innovative design and vibrant depiction of Parisian nightlife during the Belle Époque.
The poster features La Goulue, a well-known can-can dancer, in the midst of a performance, capturing her dynamic movement and flamboyant personality. She is depicted lifting her skirt in a provocative manner, a signature move that earned her the nickname "La Goulue," which translates to "The Glutton." The background showcases the lively atmosphere of the Moulin Rouge, with silhouettes of the audience and other performers, including Valentin le Désossé, a famous contortionist and dancer, who is seen in a black suit and top hat.
Toulouse-Lautrec's use of bold colors, simplified forms, and strong outlines in "Moulin Rouge, La Goulue" was groundbreaking at the time and influenced the development of modern graphic design. The poster's composition draws the viewer's eye to the central figure of La Goulue, while the use of flat areas of color and the absence of detailed shading create a striking visual impact. This approach was inspired by Japanese ukiyo-e prints, which Toulouse-Lautrec greatly admired.
"Moulin Rouge, La Goulue" not only served as an effective advertisement for the cabaret but also became a symbol of the vibrant and hedonistic spirit of late 19th-century Paris. The poster's success helped to establish Toulouse-Lautrec's reputation as a master of poster art and a keen observer of contemporary urban life. Today, it is considered one of his most famous works and a masterpiece of the Art Nouveau movement. The original lithograph is held in various museum collections around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.
