Moulin RougeBiography: Jules-Alexandre Grun was born in 1868 in Paris, France. According to the records of the Paris Salon, he died in 1938 from Parkinson's Disease, although different sources claim he died in 1934 and 1945. He was a pupil of the landscape painter Jean-Antoine Guillemet. Grun initially worked selling illustrations to magazines and designing stage sets - he began creating posters for theatres he'd designed stage sets for, beginning in 1892.

Seuls!He designed posters for Montmarte cabarets, revues, and shows, among other clients. His posters were printed by Impremerie Chaix, for which Jean Cheret was the artistic director. Besides being a poster designer, Grun also worked as a serious painter, exhibiting works in the Paris Salon starting in 1885. In his painting, After Dinner, among the characters depicted include Guillemet, Cheret, Grun (slightly obscured by Cheret, a form of tribute), and Grun's wife, Juliette Toutain-Grun.
