What it is
A colour lithograph by Jules Chéret for the pantomime "Le Miroir" at the Folies-Bergère, dated 1900 and printed at Chaix (ateliers Chéret). Broido catalogues it as no. 122.
Why it matters
Twenty-six years after Les Almées, Chéret was still drawing for the same house.
What to notice
The BnF subject line lists theatre, music and dance: a pantomime was all three.
For one decade, the street was the gallery.
