Vintage Chat Noir, Vente Hôtel Drouot Steinlen Mug

Vintage advertising poster for an art exhibition sponsored by the Chat Noir cabaret in Paris, hangout of artists and writers, by distinguished poster artist Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen. The black cat ("le chat noir") glowers fiercely at the observer. The drawing and colours are gorgeous. (BTW, Rodolphe Salis was the owner of Le Chat Noir.)
