Vintage‑Style Le Chat Noir Poster Print – Steinlen 1896
This vintage‑style Le Chat Noir poster print features Steinlen’s 1896 cabaret artwork in a high‑quality semi‑gloss reproduction. Vintage‑style poster featuring Théophile Steinlen’s iconic 1896 artwork *La Tournée du Chat Noir de Rodolphe Salis* — one of the most recognisable images of the Belle Époque era. The piece depicts a stylised black cat seated proudly against a warm tan background, framed by a bold red halo and accompanied by the famous cabaret lettering. Originally created as an advertising poster for the touring company of Le Chat Noir, the legendary Montmartre cabaret, Steinlen’s design has become a symbol of Parisian nightlife, bohemian culture and late‑19th‑century French art.
This reproduction captures the striking graphic quality of the original lithograph: sharp lines, dramatic silhouette, rich red and gold tones and the unmistakable Art Nouveau influence that defined Steinlen’s work. Perfect for lovers of vintage French posters, cabaret history or classic European art. Printed in a clean, high‑quality finish that preserves the charm and character of the original 1896 design.
