About the Item

Original Bouffes-Parisiens “Tetes de Rechange” ('Replacement Heads') linen-backed French lithograph vintage poster. Signed on the plate. It is in very good condition and ready to frame. A- Restored center fold mark. The Bouffes Parisiens is a well-known theater in Paris that has been a significant part of French cultural life since the 19th century. The Théâtre des Bouffes-Parisiens is a Parisian theater founded in 1855 by composer Jacques Offenbach for the performance of opéra bouffe and operetta. In the 19th century, the theater was often called the Salle Choiseul. After 1870, as operetta declined in popularity, the theater broadened its repertoire to include comedies. The theater remains active, regularly producing stage plays. Paul Colin was one of the most influential graphic artists of the early to mid-20th century. His work often embodies the bold, elegant aesthetic of Art Deco. Renowned for blending typography, vibrant colors, and dynamic compositions, Colin created posters for a variety of industries, including theater, music, and film. One of his most iconic pieces is the vintage poster for the Bouffes Parisiens. He is also well known for his famous vintage posters featuring Josephine Baker. This is an original vintage lithograph poster; it is not a reproduction.
