Au nouveaux cirque, Papa Chrysanthème

In 1894, in cooperation with the eminent Parisian art dealer Siegfried Bing, Tiffany planned the production of glass windows based on designs created by French artists including Bonnard, Denis, Vallotton, and Toulouse-Lautrec. Just a year later the windows were presented at the Paris Salon on the Champ de Mars and at the opening of Bing's gallery L'Art Nouveaux. Only a few are still in existence today, for example the present composition based on the work of Toulouse-Lautrec. Created in the flat poster style of Toulouse-Lautrec, it shows a detail from a circus scene.
