Yvette Guilbert by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec is a celebrated artwork that captures the essence of Parisian nightlife at the end of the 19th century through the portrayal of the famous French cabaret singer, Yvette Guilbert (1865–1944). Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864–1901), a post-impressionist painter, printmaker, draughtsman, and illustrator, was renowned for his vivid depictions of the colorful and theatrical life of Paris in the late 1800s. His works are characterized by a keen observation of people and the milieu of the bustling Parisian entertainment scene, particularly the Moulin Rouge, where Guilbert was a regular performer.

Yvette Guilbert was known for her distinctive singing style and dramatic performance of chanson réaliste—songs that depicted real-life stories and emotions, often with a touch of humor or melancholy. Toulouse-Lautrec was captivated by Guilbert's unique stage presence and her ability to convey complex emotions through her performances. His artworks featuring Guilbert are notable for their stylized representation, focusing on her elongated, expressive hands and her characteristic gesture of raising her arms above her head, a pose that became synonymous with her stage persona.

Toulouse-Lautrec's portrayal of Yvette Guilbert goes beyond mere representation; it captures the essence of her artistry and the vibrancy of the Parisian entertainment culture of the time. His works featuring Guilbert include a series of lithographs and posters, as well as paintings, that highlight his innovative use of color, line, and composition. These pieces are not only significant as portraits of a key figure in the Parisian cultural scene but also as examples of Toulouse-Lautrec's groundbreaking contributions to the art of the poster and his role in the development of modern graphic design.

The relationship between the artist and the performer was one of mutual admiration. Guilbert appreciated Toulouse-Lautrec's artistic genius, and he, in turn, was inspired by her as a muse. This collaboration resulted in some of the most iconic images of the Belle Époque era, capturing the spirit and dynamism of Parisian nightlife.

Today, Toulouse-Lautrec's depictions of Yvette Guilbert are celebrated for their artistic and historical significance. They provide insight into the cultural landscape of Paris at the turn of the century and are considered important works in the oeuvre of one of the most influential artists of the Post-Impressionist movement. These artworks are held in high regard and can be found in major museums and collections around the world, testament to their enduring appeal and significance in the history of art.
