Synopsis | He is the most famous of the posters designer, virtuoso of the line and the movement. A prolific draftsman and painter, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec realized before his tragic death at 37 years old no less than 737 paintings, 275 watercolors, 369 lithographs and posters and more than 4700 drawings. Endowed with an overflowing energy, surpassing his handicap, it is in the cabarets, theaters, and near his loved ones that he finds his inspiration, breaking with the tradition of a bourgeois painting. In advance of his time, he reinvents painting, the art of the poster and opens the way to modern advertising. |
