Step into the vibrant world of Montmartre in the 1890s with La Goulue Arriving at the Moulin Rouge, a celebrated painting by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, with this full-coverage cross-stitch pattern. Completed in 1892, this oil painting captures the energetic arrival of La Goulue, the famous can-can dancer, as she enters the Moulin Rouge cabaret, accompanied by her sister and lover. Toulouse-Lautrec’s depiction of the scene highlights La Goulue’s flamboyant personality and the bustling nightlife of Paris during this iconic period.
The composition, with its bold cropping, shallow space, and heavy outlines, is a testament to Toulouse-Lautrec’s admiration for Japanese woodblock prints and his contemporaries like Edgar Degas. These stylistic elements give the painting a dynamic sense of movement and capture the lively atmosphere of the cabaret. The owners of the Moulin Rouge were so taken with the painting that they bought it and hung it above the bar, cementing its place as a classic representation of Parisian nightlife.
This counted cross-stitch pattern brings to life the bold colors, vivid personalities, and dynamic movement of Toulouse-Lautrec’s iconic work. With regular and large print chart options, the pattern includes detailed instructions and a floss conversion chart, ensuring a rewarding stitching experience as you recreate this masterpiece.
