Toulouse-Lautrec

He is best known for his iconic posters for such Parisian night spots as the Moulin Rouge in Montmartre, yet Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901) so evocatively captured the frenetic life of belle époque Paris that one cannot think of that era without Toulouse-Lautrec's lithographs, sketches, and paintings—some of which have sold at auction for more than $20 million. Boasting outstanding color reproductions on nearly every page, this art book is both affordable and compact (measuring just under 7½ inches square) yet offers a surprisingly wide-ranging survey of this important modern artist, with an introductory essay, titles, and captions in six languages.
