Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec produces a color lithograph poster for the Divan Japonais, a Paris café at 75, Rue des Martyrs, whose waitresses wear kimonos. The Duran-Ruell Galleries uses it to advertise an exhibition of more than 300 ukiyoe prints by Hiroshige and Utamara. Toulouse-Lautrec produces another Japanese-style color lithograph to promote Aristide Bruant dans son cabaret (see 1863).
