Original “Mistinguett” Poster by Zig, Framed Art Deco Lithograph, 1932
This striking original lithograph by Zig (Louis Gaudin), created in 1932, captures the radiant presence of the legendary French entertainer Mistinguett, one of the most famous performers of the early 20th century. Known for her extravagant costumes and exuberant personality, Mistinguett was a fixture of the Parisian stage and became one of France’s highest-paid performers, starring at venues like the Moulin Rouge and Casino de Paris.

The artwork is signed “Zig,” the professional name of Louis Gaudin (1882–1936), a celebrated French poster artist and illustrator of the Art Deco era. Zig was renowned for his glamorous renderings of theater stars and cabaret performers, and this piece exemplifies his flair for elegant linework, bold stylization, and Parisian chic. The figure is depicted reclining with confident charm, dressed in a dramatic black and white stage ensemble, accented by vibrant floral details and a wide-brimmed hat, all rendered with rich color and period-defining graphic clarity.

This lithograph is an original vintage piece, not a reproduction, professionally framed with a custom black wood molding featuring decorative silver stud trim. The condition is excellent for its age, with no notable staining or paper loss. The framing includes archival materials and UV-protective glazing.

The scale of the piece makes it ideal as a bold statement artwork for interiors, home theaters, or collectors of vintage French poster art.
