Original Description
The vibrant cabaret spirit of 1920s Paris comes alive in Charles Gesmar's iconic poster Mistinguett. Depicting the legendary French entertainer mid-performance, the artwork revels in Art Deco's geometric elegance – her serpentine pose wrapped in emerald feathers against a sunburst background radiates pure joie de vivre. Created in 1926 to advertise Mistinguett's Folies Bergère show, Gesmar masterfully captures both her theatrical persona (notice the exaggerated lashes and crimson lips) and Paris' cultural zeitgeist, where music halls symbolized liberated modernity. Unlike contemporary illustrators relying on delicate lines, Gesmar's bold color blocks and dynamic diagonals epitomize the machine-age aesthetic. This landmark work elevated advertising art to fine art status, now housed in Paris' Musée des Arts Décoratifs alongside Toulouse-Lautrec's posters as a definitive record of Belle Époque spectacle.
For interiors channeling Gatsby-era glamour, scale Gesmar's masterpiece dramatically – a 24x36" framed print commands attention above art deco console tables or jazz-age home bars. Pair with lacquered black furniture to intensify its jade and gold palette, or soften with champagne velvet upholstery for luxurious contrast. The sun motif harmonizes wonderfully in south-facing rooms where natural light activates its metallic tones. Consider installing gallery lighting to recreate cabaret spotlights at night, enhancing the performance energy. Surprisingly versatile, the graphic emerald curves work equally well in modern minimalist spaces as a bold Pop Art statement piece, proving Gesmar's genius transcends eras. Always display as a singular focal point; competing patterns diminish its hypnotic power.
