Aristide Bruant dans son Cabaret, Toulouse-Lautrec, 1894

Bruant walks away from you in his black cape.

What

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's lithograph of Aristide Bruant, catalogued by the Cleveland Museum of Art as Bruant au Mirliton, 1894 (Wittrock P10b, Delteil 349), accession 1950.342.

Why

The words announce Bruant at the theatre in his cabaret, and Lautrec drew him from behind, known by his hat and cape alone.

Notice

The figure is one flat black shape against cream paper, with a red scarf showing at the collar.

“A man so famous his back was enough.”
