Seventh Performance: Les Tisserands, for Le Théatre Libre 1892 - 1893

Henri-Gabriel Ibels’s *Seventh Performance: Les Tisserands, for Le Théatre Libre* is a lithograph that depicts a scene from the play *Les Tisserands* by Gerhart Hauptmann. The lithograph is a poster advertising a performance of the play at the Théâtre Libre in 1893. The image depicts a group of coal miners working in a dark and shadowy mine. This lithograph is an example of the use of lithography to promote theatrical events and provide a glimpse into the industrial world of the late 19th century.
