About the Item
This beautiful original 1930's modern style poster was created for the opening of the new Alhambra Theater, featuring Maurice Chevalier. The actor is dressed in a black bow tie and a slanted-brimmed straw hat that covers most of his face, revealing only his smiling mouth against a sky blue background. Aside from its historical value, this is a lively, graphic work with compelling typography and a cheerful, sophisticated color palette.

Charles Kiffer
Charles Kiffer, born in France, was well known for his figures, paintings, prints, posters, almost all devoted to theater, music hall and circus. From 1918, he attended the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. In 1923, he created, for his pleasure, the portrait of Maurice Chevalier who entrusted him with the production of posters for his following shows in 1926 and 1927. From then on, he became the regular poster artist for the singer and created 13 posters for him. He illustrated posters for many stars like Georges Guétary (1933), Charles Trénet, Edith Piaf (1936), Yves Montand, Rina Ketty, Gaby Morlay in 1939. Kiffer also created many sets and stage curtains for the Casino de Paris. More than 65 years after his first poster, Kiffer still works in his studio on the Ile Saint-Louis in Paris, where he likes to entertain his friends and the great contemporary artists.
