Thomas Theodor Heine :: Marya Delvard. Die 11 Scharfrichter. The Eleven Executioners was the first popular cabaret in Germany, and its subject matter was political humour. Marya Delvard used to sing underneath a single spotlight, creating a performance that was both chilling and enticing. This poster is from a 1902 performance. | src The Guardian
