You see a folded sheet of music, printed in bold black ink with splashes of red and green watercolor. This isn’t just a song—it’s a poster for a Paris nightclub act. The words “La Valse des bas noirs” (The Waltz of the Black Stockings) run down the side, advertising a risqué dance. Ibels designed it to be pasted on walls, so the colors are bright and the lines are simple. Look up the technique: lithography.
