Original Vintage French Poster ”Le Carillon” by Grun 1894 This poster by Grun is the second - and last silhouette poster rediscovered. It was done for Le Carillon, founded by Tiercy (Georges Leon Stiers) who began his career at the Decadents and who rapidly decided to open his own cabaret. Jules-Alexandre Grun (25 May 1868 – 15 February 1934) was a French post-impressionist painter, poster artist, and illustrator.[1] Grun's best known painting is called The Dinner Party, produced in 1911. It was, however, in the fields of poster art and illustration art, for which he was famous. He was employed at a large printing company in Paris and his artistic director was Jules Cheret. Cheret was also his main competitor in poster art.
