"Ronde des Marmites" is a black and white illustration by Théophile Alexandre Steinlen, a renowned French artist active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image depicts a woman in a swirling skirt, holding a large coin with the number "90" printed on it. The woman is set against a background of a city skyline, likely Paris. The artwork's title, which translates to "Round of Pots," suggests a connection to the Parisian underworld and its culture, which was a frequent subject in Steinlen's work. This illustration likely portrays a cabaret dancer or performer, showcasing the artist's talent for capturing the dynamism and vivacity of Parisian life.
