"Willst du meine Miez?" or "Do you want my kitty?" is the question Mlle. Fleuron poses (see scan) and no, it's unlikely she's trying to find a home for her pet cat. A little risque humor from the Jugendstil Epoche :)
Lise Fleuron was born Marguerite Rauscher on December 1st, 1874. She was a popular cafe-concert/music hall performer in the late 1890s and into the 1900s. Her sister Méaty, or sometimes Miati, was likewise the toast of Paris for some time. Both sisters were particularly well known for their plunging necklines and apparently were the constant targets of gossip, which of course only bolstered their careers :)
Mlle. Fleuron passed away in Enghien, on the 27th of February, 1960.
