Toulouse-Lautrec may be my favourite painter of all time. It's quite possible. His works feel so romantic and beautiful, with an edge of the Parisian sex underworld. I love it. I've been a big fan of him for years, and not just for the iconic "Moulin Rouge" lithograph, and his popularization in Baz Luhrmann's film Moulin Rouge! Though, I did love that movie quite a bit. Nicole Kidman is awesome.
Anyway, I prefer Toulouse-Lautrec's full-on paintings to his lithographs. Two of them (the first two) are actually framed in my bedroom.
Please, enjoy, and share with me the talent of a turn-of-the-century artistic genius.
