Original Poster Moulin Rouge - New Roller Coaster, by René Péan - 1901

Designed by René Péan in 1901, this sumptuous advertising poster celebrates one of the famous Parisian cabaret’s outdoor attractions: the new roller coaster in the garden of the Moulin Rouge. Printed by the renowned Chaix printing house, it embodies the effervescence and bold spirit of Belle Époque Paris, where nightly pleasures combined thrill-seeking with a flair for elegance.

The scene captures a moment of pure amusement: a car hurtles forward at full speed, carrying a merry group of revelers dressed in feathers, tailcoats, and vibrant gowns. Their faces are animated, their gestures lively, and their glances complicit. The dynamic composition, vivid colors, and flowing fabrics lend the image a jubilant energy that is as charming as it is entertaining.

Original lithographic poster, linen-backed, measuring 49.2 x 34.6 in, in A+ condition.
