Moulin Rouge
Ferdinand Misti-Mifliez captures the wild spirit of Paris in this playful Moulin Rouge programme cover, featuring a dancer balancing a giant red windmill on a pole. Dressed in bold red-and-white stripes, she floats against a circular backdrop of the city skyline, with the Eiffel Tower peeking out in the distance. This Art Nouveau design perfectly encapsulates the Belle Époque era, where a mere 50 centimes could buy you a ticket to the world's most famous cabaret. By turning the venue's iconic roof windmill into a handheld prop, the artist whimsically puts the 'Red Mill' right in the palm of the performer's hand.
