"Erotic Bronze "la Goulue" From The French Cancan. 1890"
Erotic bronze: "La goulue"Length: 15.7 cm.
Height: 6.2 cm
The most famous French Cancan dancer of the end of the 19th century at the Moulin Rouge.
Immortalized by the posters of Toulouse Lautrec, the drawings of Steinlen, etc.
When she dances "the naturalist quadrille", she teases the male audience with the whirl of her skirts with raised flounces that reveal her panties and... With the tip of her foot, she makes a man's hat fly. The name of her first mentor (Gaston Goulu Chilapane) and her habit of emptying customers' glasses as she passes their tables earned her the nickname "La Goulue" (.G.mMll)
