Аннотация:
Best-known for his depictions of young women performing the can-can, Toulouse-Lautrec was a shrewd observer of contemporary French life. Focusing on his prints, this generously illustrated book offers a thematic re-consideration of the artist's oeuvre. In sections such as The Human Comedy, A» Actors of the Scene, A» The Metropolis, A» and Circus, A» the book highlights Toulouse-Lautrec's keenly perceptive gaze as he explored a variety of settings-circuses, brothels, cafes, and dancehalls-and subjects of both genders and all classes in his work. A radical in his own radical time, Toulouse-Lautrec emerges as a consummate bohemian artist who depicted his contemporaries' appetite for visual and sensual pleasure.
