About the Item

Cirque Medrano chalk Illustrations by André Legrand-Chabrier. André Legrand-Chabrier (1876-1945) was a French novelist, journalist, illustrator and chronicler of the French circus. One illustration is of a dog trainer with a French poodle in a skirt, the other a seal trainer with four seals and a beach ball. Chabrier was the Secrétaire Général of the Paris circus who chronicled the circus and was in charge of it's press and public relations. They are framed with ebony wood frames, beige mats and protective glass. Because of the circus' proximity to Montmartre, the circus attracted many artists including Renoir, Degas, and Lautrec. Mrs. Fernando, who oversaw the box office, decided to let the painters work freely in the circus during rehearsals and watch the performances free of charge. Watercolor and pastel. Image size 17.75" H x 11.75" W. N.P. Trent has been a respected name in antiques for over 30 years with a large collection of period furniture, art and decorative accessories.
