More about this artwork

This striking work, "Affiche Pour Le Moulin Rouge 'La Goulue'," is a vibrant and iconic poster designed by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. The painting was made to promote the famous Parisian dance hall, Moulin Rouge, and features the renowned dancer La Goulue, who was famous for her charismatic performances and the cancan dance.In the painting, La Goulue is depicted in mid-twirl, her white dress flaring out around her in a dynamic sweep. Her attire is accentuated with red polka dots, matching her raised red stocking leg. She appears vibrant and full of motion against the more muted background figures. To her right, a man wearing a black silhouette with a top hat creates a contrast to her vivid and lively figure, directing all attention toward her.The background is filled with silhouettes of the audience, dominated by dark tones, which represent the shadowy, anonymous crowd of the cabaret. The top of the poster features bold lettering with the words "Moulin Rouge" and "Bal Tous Les Soirs" (Dance Every Night), emphasizing the nightly entertainment offered by the venue.Toulouse-Lautrec's technique of using bold outlines with flat areas of color helps capture the lively atmosphere of Moulin Rouge and reflects the art nouveau style that was popular at the time.

Henri de Toulouse–Lautrec (1864–1901), was an aristocratic alcoholic French artist known for his socially unacceptable lifestyle. He observed and documented the Parisian nightlife through his post-impressionist artworks. Sharing a similar style as other well-known French artists such as Paul Cézanne and Georges Seurat, he created memorable works of art depicting the lifestyle that he enjoyed before passing at a young age.
