Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec 2027 Wall Calendar De Toulouse-lautrec

Balancing the Montmartre neighborhood's spirited personality and grit, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's posters, advertisements, and paintings are seen as quintessential representations of 19th-century Parisian nightlife. Between cafes, cabarets, and other heavily trafficked venues, his portraits of the sorted citizens of Paris - from sex workers to aristocrats - characterize the atmosphere of his time, including the radically shifting gender and class relations. The advent of modern printmaking allowed Toulouse-Lautrec to share his legendary work widely and on a physical scale that the world had never seen. He once famously decreed, "The poster, that's all there is!"
