The second (of four) posters Lautrec created depicting his friend, the Parisian cabaret singer Aristide Bruant. Despite the shocked reactions to his first poster of the performer that he created earlier that same year (Ambassadeurs, 1892), Lautrec created this poster using new stones, but retaining the same dimensions and color palette. This copy advertises Bruant's café-cabaret at the Eldorado on Boulevard de Strasbourg in Paris. Lautrec would create two more posters showing Bruant, also in 1892.
