L’Amant des Danseuses — Jules Cheret — 1896 – Les Affiches Illustree’s
Original period lithographic plate from Les Affiches Illustrees, published in 1896 and printed by Imprimerie Chaix, Paris. Cheret’s design advertises L’Amant des Danseuses (The Lover of the Dancers), a novel by Felicien Champsaur published by E. Dentu. The composition reflects the lively theatrical spirit and decorative elegance that made Cheret one of the defining artists of the Belle Epoque.
Known as the “Father of the Modern Poster,” Jules Cheret (1836–1932) transformed French advertising through his mastery of color lithography. Drawing on the lightness and movement of Rococo painting, he created memorable advertisements for theaters, cabarets, and music halls. His joyful, free-spirited female figures, popularly called “Cherettes,” became enduring symbols of Parisian life.
