This volume presents the life and works of French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901), whose immersion in the colorful and theatrical life of 19th century Paris yielded a trove of exciting, elegant and provocative images of the modern and sometimes decadent life of those times. The author has included introductory texts written by art historians that provide background into the artist, and their analysis is accompanied by sketches, related works by other artists, and black-and-white photographs. This book features 40 full-page, full-color plates with commentaries on the facing page. Toulouse-Lautrec's paintings and prints focused on the theater, dance halls, cafés, and even brothels of late-19th-century Paris. Brimming with emotion and atmosphere, his works were characterized by a distinctive and masterly handling of line. This volume illuminates the unique place Toulouse-Lautrec came to occupy in French art during his short lifetime of 37 years
