Toulouse Lautrec and the Art of the Poster.
Toulouse-Lautrec and the Art of the Poster. The Complete Works. This book presents all of Toulouse-Lautrec's posters, restored, and compares them with the works of other renowned poster artists, such as Jules Chéret and Alfons Mucha. To understand the artist's creative journey, the posters are also compared with the sketches or preparatory works that preceded them. The poster creation technique is studied and presented in detail through intermediate prints, allowing readers to understand the stages of production. Three essays (Fanny Girard, curator and director of the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum in Albi; Phillip Dennis Cate, 19th-century specialist and director emeritus, Jane Voorhees Zimmerli Art Museum, Rutgers the State University of New Jersey; Jennifer Heim, head of posters, prints and wallpapers, Carnavalet History Museum in Paris) place the artist and his work in the historical, economic and social context of the time, offering a particular perspective on the rise of the illustrated poster at the end of the 19th century and the exhibition and collection practices that resulted from it.
