The Posters of Toulouse-Lautrec

The Post-Impressionist French painter, printmaker, caricaturist and illustrator Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec moved in the celebrity circles of 19th-century Bohemian Paris. Hugely influenced by the flamboyant, vibrant, eclectic, free-spirited, debauched lifestyle of the time, his work was known for its provocative nature, highlighting Paris´s colourful nightlife, stripping away the glamour to bring the Parisian underworld to life. This movie examines Toulouse-Lautrec’s work as a printmaker and shines a light on the celebrated stars of the stage, and the styles and fashions of the time. His work features Paris´s most popular cafés, cabarets, and entertainers including stage star Yvette Guilbert and famous dancers like Jane Avril and Loïe Fuller.
