Description: **Title:** Original 1926 Charles Gesmar Mistinguett Moulin Rouge Poster **Auction Description:** **Genre:** Theatre & Opera **Artist:** Charles Gesmar **Year Printed:** 1926 **Size:** 30" x 47.5" **Country of Origin:** Unknown **Condition Detail:** Professionally linen backed **Grade:** Excellent Condition **Description:** This original vintage poster, created by the renowned artist Charles Gesmar in 1926, features the iconic Mistinguett at the height of her fame at the Moulin Rouge. Known as the soul of France, Mistinguett captivated audiences with her bold performances and risqué costumes, despite not being traditionally beautiful or a remarkable singer. Her long, lithe legs became her trademark, and she insured them for what would today be one million dollars. This poster is currently framed, but upon request, it can be rolled and placed in a tube for shipping, offering a cost-saving option. The back of the framed poster contains a handwritten note: *“This art form is mounted on pure linen.”* **Please Note:** The lighting in the photos was not optimal, which may affect the color representation in the images. However, the poster's vibrant colors and overall condition are as described. **Printer:** Imp. H. Chachoin, Paris **References:** Gesmar, p. 155; Moulin Rouge, p. 102; Folies-Bergère, 63; Hillier, p. 249; Theaterplakate, 155; PAI-LXVII, 110
