Henri Toulouse-Lautrec was a leading postimpressionist artist whose paintings, lithography, and posters contributed much to the development of Art Nouveau in the 1890s. He was also a harsh and witty chronicler of the gaudy nightlife and the sordid elements of late-19th-century Parisian society. Toulouse-Lautrec greatly advanced the art of color lithography. His surviving drawings and sketches for his posters give the effect of speed and casualness, but in fact they represent a painstaking discipline and mastery in their extended use of line and reduction to essentials.
