About this artwork
This is a poster for La Farandole, a ballet in three acts presented at the Théâtre National de l'Opéra in Paris. Jules Chéret made it in 1884 as a colour lithograph, and his signature appears on the sheet. In the scene, dancers perform in front of a Roman arena. The lettering names the ballet's creators: Gille, Mortier and Merante, along with Dubois for the music. The sheet shows some signs of wear, which add to its period character. Chéret is remembered as a leading figure of Belle Époque poster art.
On your wall: Suits a sitting room, hallway, study or dining area where a touch of theatrical, vintage Parisian character is welcome.

About Jules Chéret
Jules Chéret was a French painter and lithographer who became a leading figure in Belle Époque poster art. His work in this field was so influential that he has often been called the father of the modern poster. His name remains closely tied to the colourful, eye-catching street posters of that era.
