Basic Art Series: Toulouse-Lautrec
By Matthias Arnold
In our imaginings of Paris, painter and graphic artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864–1901) has no small role to play. In his prints, posters, paintings, and drawings, the artist immortalized the city’s Belle Époque nightlife and put the northern neighborhood of Montmartre on the global map of creative-hedonist hotspots.
Though he died aged 36, Toulouse-Lautrec’s influence was immense, immortalizing the nightlife of the Belle Époque and putting the Paris neighborhood of Montmartre on the global map of hedonist-creative hotspots. Walk through his world of singers, dancers, musicians, and prostitutes and discover an artist of great humanity, figurative skill, and sense for the stories of a city.
