This French poster was created in 1894 to advertise Henri Ibels' one-man show at La Bodinaire. La Bodinaire, a theater for plays and shadow shows, also served as an art gallery and a place for literary talks. At the turn-of-the-century, it was a popular destination for Paris's upper class and the intelligentsia. The poster contains three vignettes which reference figures from Ibels work for Le Caf� Concert and La Theatre Libre, and includes the comedy classics of Harlequin and Pierrot.
This is the original stone lithographic poster measuring 22-1/2 inches tall and one of only a handful of posters by Ibels, an important member of the Nabis.
