Toulouse-Lautrec
Saturday, August 29th, 2009
While I was researching my post on Madeleine Vionnet, I stumbled across the fact that at the same museum in Paris where the Vionnet exhibition was being held, there was also a Toulouse-Lautrec display nearby. Lautrec is more widely known since his inclusion in Baz Luhrmann’s hit film Moulin Rouge, but prior to that he was a world renowned painter and illustrator, whose works have been known to fetch up to $22.4million at auction.
The exhibition, held at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, runs until 3rd January 2010, and includes 26 of Lautrec’s most famous works. For more information, visit the museum website.
