Synopsis
This book offers a beautiful exploration of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's works in lithography. It explores the new artistic approach to the poster at the end of the 19th century, which bridged visual and popular culture and turned the relationship between 'high' and 'low' art on its head. Technical innovations in lithography pioneered by Lautrec and other artists produced larger sizes, more varied colors and new effects and launched the role of the poster as a powerful tool for communication and marketing in fin de siècle Paris. Lautrec's embrace of celebrity helped to define the famous hotspots (theaters, cabarets and café-concerts) of fin de siècle Paris and made their stars recognizable figures across the whole city. Works by contemporaries such as Pierre Bonnard, Théophile Alexandre Steinlen and Jules Chéret also feature, and Lautrec's influence on British, and particularly Scottish, artists of the period will be explored. These include Walter Richard Sickert, Arthur Melville, John Duncan Fergusson and William Nicholson.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's brief career coincided with one of the most exciting periods in the history of western printmaking. In Paris at the end of the nineteenth century, a new generation of avant-garde artists made techniques such as lithography, etching and woodcut central to their creative process, sparking a printmaking and collecting boom. Vibrant images of the celebrities of the day - performers, singers and dancers from Paris's most famous nightclubs such as the Moulin Rouge and the Chat Noir - Lautrec's work was a huge commercial success and is still widely admired to this day, with reproductions popular the world over. The prints and posters of this time are colourful, evocative and iconic. Toulouse-Lautrec's ground-breaking achievements in lithography, his technical and artistic virtuosity and modern outlook and approach, transgressed traditional boundaries by mixing popular culture, commerce and art and led the way to modern visual culture.
