The poster uses pink and blue colors which were used to demonstrate the fun, party environment of the Folies Bergere at the time.
The Folies Bergere is a widely known cabaret music hall located in Paris, France. Meeting the height of its fame from the 1890’s through the 1920’s, The Folies Bergere is popular for its extravagant costumes, sets and special effects. Still operating today, the institution is a strong symbol of French and Parisian life.
Gaston Girbal (1888 -1978) was a French illustrator and painter known for his poster work for the Folies Bergere, Edith Piaf, Josephine Baker, Genevieve Guiltry, Casino de Paris and other numerous theater companies (Wikipedia).

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
