Toulouse-Lautrec was a French painter, printmaker, draughtsman, caricaturist and illustrator whose immersion in the colourful and theatrical life of Paris in the late 19th century allowed him to produce a collection of enticing, elegant, and provocative Impressionaist images of the modern, sometimes decadent, subjects of Paris in the late nineteenth century. Born into French aristocracy, Toulouse-Lautrec broke both his legs around the time of his adolescence and due to an unknown medical condition (possibly inbreeding), was very short as an adult due to his undersized legs. In addition to his alcoholism, he developed an affinity for brothels and prostitutes that directed the subject matter for many of his works. A scarce, very large heavy book, extra postage will be required.
