Is there context for this?

This is the #1 most common poster I saw in my 20s. F-ing everyone had this.

It is really well composed.

I was wondering too. My parents have this poster. My apartment lobby has this poster.

This article looks interesting. Apparently, Steinlen was a labor activist. https://news.artnet.com/art-world/theophile-alexandre-steinlen-tournee-du-chat-noir-2417712

Here, you can check the poster while listening to Original Aristide Bruant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQzBO4nJVuA

Now that I think of it, we used to sing quite a long part of the song in the scouts group I was. I do wonder how it got there.
