EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration for the menu of Paris's famed Restaurant Tabarin in Montmartre, created by French artist Adolphe Léon Willette in 1905, transports us to a fantastical world of eroticism and decadence. The image features a host of ravenous cherubim, their chubby bodies straining with hunger, eagerly anticipating the delivery of the dish of the day. The centerpiece of the scene is a luxuriant, naked female, her voluptuous form piled high on a large platter, as four serving girls, barely covered themselves, prepare to present the dish to the celestial beings. Adolphe Léon Willette (1857-1926) was a versatile artist, known for his work as a painter, illustrator, caricaturist, and lithographer. His unique style, characterized by its bizarre, odd, and unusual elements, was a perfect fit for the bohemian spirit of Montmartre and the cabaret culture of Paris. This menu illustration is a testament to Willette's ability to merge the erotic with the fantastical, creating an image that is as intriguing as it is seductive. The year was 1905, a time when Paris was the epicenter of artistic innovation and creative expression. This illustration, with its sensual and fantastical elements, is a reminder of the city's rich history and the role it played in shaping the cultural landscape of the modern world. Whether you're a history buff, an art lover, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the unusual, this menu illustration by Adolphe Léon Willette is sure to leave you enchanted.
