Quadrille at the Moulin Rouge (1892). Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, 1864-1901. Oil on cardboard. NGA.

The Moulin Rouge dance hall was opened on 5 October 1889, and was the meeting place of Paris society, artists and demi-monde. In the middle of the venue was a large dance floor surrounded by a promenade, tables, and a garden. Between 1890 and 1896 the Moulin Rouge inspired Lautrec to no less than thirty paintings, which give us a fine picture of the famous dance hall, its atmosphere and its clientele.
