Le Rire (1894-1971) was the most successful of all French satirical journals at the beginning of the 20th century. The satirical journal was filled with excellent drawings by prominent artists such as Steinlen, Toulouse Lautrec, Goursat, Willette, Forain, Capiello, Hermann-Paul and Guillaume.
During the music hall era, cabarets and cafes were crowded with personalities and Parisians could catch glimpses of the stars of the day. Le Rire was there to capture scene for its readers. Its pages depicted the likes of Yvette Guilbert, Polaire, Jane Avril and Réjane.
The journal featured full-page chromotypographs on both covers and in the centrefold. Many of these pieces are now highly desirable collectibles.
