Chat Noir |
| Description |
The "Chat Noir" was a theater-restaurant and describes the troupe's presentation of plays, poetry, readings and songs. The owner of the Cabaret was an early supporter of Steinlen. The direct stare of the Cat is meant to convey the characteristics of the true Parisian cat as well as the people who frequented the Cabaret, who lived in the Monmartre section of Paris. Steinlen was born in 1859 and is an important figure for the color revolution - not only for developing an audience for color printing in general, but also for producing some of the strongest color lithographic posters and prints of the period. He died in 1941. |
