About the Item
A French Art Nouveau lithograph "La Tige, Moulin Rouge" by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. The work, as with many of Lautrec’s crayon lithographs, is imbued with a spirit of tongue and cheek euphemism and satirical caricature. La tige was slang for a cigarette. Lautrec depicts the eponymous cigarettes in the mouths of two behatted men in the background. In the foreground, a lady in profile wears a squirrel stole. As squirrel was the cheapest of furs, she can be identified as a member of the working class. Her kohl-rimmed eyes and black bow mark her as a sex worker, a member of the demimonde.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec
During his brief artistic career, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec captured the lively and often sordid atmosphere of Montmartre’s late 19th-century dance halls, cabarets, and theaters. Recording the performances he viewed and the establishments he visited on a nightly basis, he functioned as artist and narrator: original Lautrec paintings, drawings, prints, and posters expose the complexities of the quickly changing age in which he lived.
Between 1890 and 1900, Paris saw tremendous growth in its nightlife scene, with nearly 300 café-concerts serving women and men who drank, smoked, and fraternized in ways previously unpermitted to them in public. In such prominent clubs as the Moulin Rouge and less reputable institutions like the Moulin de la Galette, aristocrats often rubbed shoulders with the working class. It was within these establishments that Lautrec found the subjects he would voraciously document over the next decade.
Lautrec chronicled his era largely through printmaking — something few other artists had attempted to do in this medium. From 1891 until his death in 1901, he produced nearly 350 lithographic posters, editioned portfolios, and illustrations for journals and theater programs recounting life in Belle Époque Paris. The rise of color lithography in 1891 ushered in a new form of printmaking, and Lautrec found great success in this medium. This process allowed him to print large posters in color.

Alphonse Mucha "La Plume et La Primevere" Lithograph
By Alphonse Mucha
Located in New York, NY
Mucha's Primrose poster is a true design masterpiece, showcasing a rich interplay of botanical and historical elements. The top border features opium poppies, while the second is lined with Cobea flowers, also known as the cup-and-saucer vine. The aureole surrounding the central figure is adorned with hollyhock blossoms. The female figure wears her hair in a low coiffure, and delicately holds a candelabra primrose to her nose, as if savoring its fragrance. In Mucha's Plume poster, an elegant woman with a high coiffure holds a goose quill and laurel branches. The aureole surrounding the central figure is based on the famous rose window of the Cathedral of Chartres. The shape of the quill and how she holds it is a reference to the holding of palm branches by saints in Christian icons of Saints. Instead of the meaning of martyrdom, Tiffany’s chosen virtues are more secular, the quill representing knowledge and the laurels a Greek symbol of poetry. The top border of the poster is similarly adorned with opium poppies, while the second border features anemones.
