Original Description
This exquisite pencil and watercolor costume design by Charles Carl Gesmar captures the vibrant spirit of Parisian cabaret during the Roaring Twenties. Created for Mistinguett, France’s legendary "Queen of the Music Hall," the artwork epitomizes Gesmar’s signature Art Deco elegance, blending fluid pencil sketches with luminous watercolor washes. The composition radiates movement and theatrical flair, with cascading feathers and sinuous lines that mirror Mistinguett’s dynamic stage presence. Gesmar’s work revolutionized theatrical design, bridging Fine Art and performance—his collaborations with Mistinguett became iconic symbols of Paris’s golden age of entertainment. Today, this piece represents a pivotal moment in costume design history, where fashion transcended functionality to become kinetic sculpture. The delicate balance of precision drawing and painterly spontaneity makes it a masterclass in early 20th-century illustration.
For interior styling, this artwork demands a setting that honors its Jazz Age pedigree. Consider pairing it with polished chrome frames against deep navy or emerald walls to echo its theatrical luxe. Ideal for a dressing room, creative studio, or executive office, the medium-scale piece (typically 30x40cm) works beautifully above a velvet-upholstered console or sleek art deco bar cart. Complement its palette with jewel-toned furnishings—perhaps a plum armchair or mercury glass accents—while keeping other wall art minimalist to let Gesmar’s lines command attention. In corporate spaces, position it alongside black-and-white performance photographs to create a narrative about artistry and innovation. The watercolor’s softness balances well with geometric lighting fixtures, making it versatile for both vintage-inspired and contemporary interiors seeking a touch of “Folies Bergère” glamour.
