From the 1897 Das Moderne Plakat version of this famous poster. A fine example in blue, orange, black, yellow, and olive.Transcribed in 1897 from Lautrec's 1892 full size poster designed to publicize the well known Cafe-Concert singer Aristide Bruant. Bruant sang at several Cafe Concert venues in Montmartre where Lautrec frequented, eventually moving closer to the center of Paris. The image shows an arrogant Bruant a bright orange scarf and his trademark hat. This image was published in the German volume Das Moderne Plakat, a collection of small format poster images for collectors. This series was published in 1897 by Verlag von Gerhard Kuhtmann in Dresden, Germany. Many of these have not survived in good condition; many have not survived at all. Even though this is a lifetime impression, since artisans at Verlag von Gerhard Kuhtmann did the transcribing of the large poster onto a smaller stone, this is technically an "after" Lautrec.  Transcribed signature in the plate lower left.- Title:  Ariside Bruant - Ambassadeurs- Artist:  Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec- Year of publication:  1897- Image size:  8-3/4 inches H x 6 inches W (22 cm x 15 cm)- Sheet size:  11-1/4 inches H x 8-1/4 inches W (29 cm x 21 cm) - Framed size:  19-1/4 inches H x 16-1/2 W (49 cm x 42 cm)Elegantly framed in dark wood frame with blue highlights that complement the image.
