Toulouse Lautrec

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec was a French painter and printmaker known for capturing the vibrant nightlife of late 19th-century Paris. His distinctive style features bold lines, vivid colors, and a keen eye for character and movement. He often depicted performances, cafes, and the bohemian society of Montmartre, highlighting performers, dancers, and fame-seekers. Despite physical limitations due to childhood injuries, Lautrec's innovative approach and social commentary have made him a significant figure in Post-Impressionist art, influencing modern visual culture. His work remains celebrated for its expressiveness and insight into the Parisian entertainment scene.
