Folies Bergere / La Grande Folie 1927
Buy this print on Etsy →Folies Bergere / La Grande Folie, a 1927 poster whose bold pink, black, and cream design distills Jazz Age Paris into a single cheeky image: a top-hatted gentleman in a bow tie leaning nose-to-nose with a stylized nude woman, rendered in the angular, near-cubist caricature line of the era. Signed by Pico and printed by Jombart Fils of Paris, it advertises the Hyper Revue at the most famous music hall in the city.
By the 1920s the Folies Bergere was the dazzling heart of Parisian nightlife, and its posters traded the soft pastels of the Belle Epoque for the sharp, graphic punch of Art Deco. This design is a striking example of that Jazz Age energy, all attitude and bold flat color.
As wall art it makes a witty, sophisticated focal point in a lounge, bar, hallway, or gallery wall of vintage entertainment posters. Each print is a museum-quality reproduction on premium archival matte paper, with rich, faithful color, ready to frame and built to last.
