Summary

Cartoon "Hier et aujourd'hui" by Albert Guillaume, from the title page of "Le Rire" No. 468, 20 January 1912, Text:

Alors, ces lampes rouges devant la rampe annoncent que le spectacle va commencer? De mon temps, on frappait trois coups… – Console-toi, mon bebé…: tu vois, ça ne se fait plus, même au théâtre…

Born in Paris, France, Albert Guillaume became a leading caricaturist during the Belle Époque. While remembered for his poster art, Guillaume also did oil paintings such as "Soirée parisienne," a portrait of Parisian dinner society. He created theater posters as well as advertising posters that were greatly influenced by the work of one of the preeminent poster painters, Jules Chéret.
