EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment from the iconic Folies Bergère cabaret in Paris during the year 1931. The tableaux depicted in the image is titled "Les loups de velours," or "The Velvet Wolves," and showcases a group of performers dressed in velvet costumes resembling wolves. The Folies Bergère, established in 1869, is renowned for its elaborate and provocative productions, which have entertained audiences for over a century. The Velvet Wolves tableau was part of the cabaret's rich history of music, dance, and theatrical performances. The performers in this image are seen posing seductively, their velvet costumes shimmering under the stage lights. The use of velvet fabric adds an element of luxury and allure to the performance, while the wolf motif adds a touch of mystery and intrigue. The Folies Bergère was a popular destination for both locals and tourists, and the Velvet Wolves tableau was likely a crowd-pleaser during its run. The cabaret's history is filled with famous performers, from Liza Minnelli and Eartha Kitt to Edith Piaf and Josephine Baker. The Velvet Wolves tableau is just one example of the innovative and captivating performances that have made the Folies Bergère a legendary institution in the world of entertainment. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Folies Bergère was at the forefront of Parisian nightlife and entertainment. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural history of France and the enduring power of live performance to captivate and delight audiences.
