Welcome! I am an art student and Lautrec enthusiast. I get my information from a variety of biographies, the documentary, Toulouse-Lautrec, The Full Story, and occasionally the web. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. My hope is that this blog helps you learn more about Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec to better appreciate his work, the works that shaped him and the work he inspired. Enjoy!

YOU GUYS. It’s happening, I’m going to France this August. I’ll be taking tons and tons of pictures here, the Musée Toulouse-Lautrec. It has the largest T-L collection in the world! :)  I CANNOT WAIT.

Giovanni Boldini: Portrait of a Dandy (formerly portrait of Toulouse-Lautrec) Boldini. Pastel on paper. 25x16 inches. 1880-1890. What do you guys think…is this Lautrec? It looks nothing like him in my opinion. I’m trying to dig up more on this piece, I was just a bit confused when I discovered the title.

Thank you so much! You have a great collection on your blog. Don’t mind the million reblogs coming from me to you! ;)

My buddy, Chris made this poster &#8220;as an homage to Lautrec&#8221; his lovely girlfriend and friend o&#8217; mine, Danielle showed it to me and had to share it with you guys because I absolutely adore it. He did an awesome job with the caricature and lettering, I especially love the colors he chose. :) Enjoy!

Anonymous asked: for French r's, think of the word "heir." works for me!

MERCI! I’m going to add that to my little practice “exercises” and if you are still practicing, this link helped me a lot! :)

Learning French is going to be fun, but the pronunciations are killing me. I cannot get my “r’s” down!
