Before making her career she was a model and sales assistant at the Printemps department store. In 1889 she appeared at the Eldorado for the first time, and in 1890, at the Moulin Rouge. In 1895 she went on tour to America, and she returned to Paris even more famous than before. Long black gloves were her trademark. Lautrec drew her wearing her gloves, and he dedicated two lithograph albums to her. ## Related artworks - [A Corner of the Moulin de la Galette]() - [Admiral Viaud]() - [After the Meal]() - [Alfred la Guigne]() - [Ambassadeurs: Aristide Bruant]() - [Ambassadeurs: Aristide Bruant]() - [An Examination at the Faculty of Medicine in Paris]() - [At the Circus: Horse and Monkes Dressage]() - [At the Moulin Rouge: La Goulue and her Sister]() - [At the Moulin Rouge or The Promenade]() - [At the Moulin Rouge]() - [At the Moulin Rouge]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
