The programme, dating back to around 1905, showcases a colourful lithograph by the French School of the 20th century. Preserved in the Bibliotheque Historique de la Ville de Paris, this piece offers a glimpse into an era filled with entertainment and artistic expression. Located on Boulevard Voltaire, Ba-ta-clan was designed by architect Charles Duval and opened its doors in 1864. This iconic venue became synonymous with Offenbach's operetta "Ba-ta-clan" which inspired its name. The advertisement featured on this programme highlights various elements that made these cafe concerts so popular during that time. The image portrays a lively scene where both men and women are dressed elegantly for an evening out. Applause fills the air as performers take center stage, showcasing their talents through music, acting, mime, and more. The audience is captivated by each act while enjoying their leisurely night at this fashionable establishment. The presence of musical instruments such as lutes adds to the ambiance of this enchanting setting. Notably, one can observe a bare-breasted female performer who represents the boldness and avant-garde nature of these performances. Overall, this print encapsulates not only a specific moment in history but also reflects society's fascination with entertainment during that era. It serves as a testament to how artistry transcends time and continues
