What it is
A poster by Clémentine-Hélène Dufau for the "Bal des Increvables" on 9 April 1896 at the Casino de Paris, from the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg, which released the file under CC0.
Why it matters
Dufau was a painter who showed at the Salon, and a poster by a woman was an exception on the Paris hoardings of the 1890s.
What to notice
The ball's name means "the indestructibles", the hardiest night owls in Paris.
For one decade, the street was the gallery.
