Le Danseur de Jazz (1928). Benito Perojo

El Patio, a nightspot in Montmartre where devotees of Spanish art could savor French champagne at American prices.

El Patio continued to be the fashionable cabaret. Under the aegis of a Spaniard from Marseille, African-American musicians maintained a remarkably Spanish atmosphere in the room.
