EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph print by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec captures the essence of 19th-century Parisian life. Entitled "P. Sescau Photographe" this poster was originally created as a shop sign for Toulouse-Lautrec's friend, photographer Paul Sescan. The image features a woman dressed in an eye-catching pink dress and wearing a mask, adding an air of mystery to the scene. She is adorned with black gloves and stands against a backdrop of bold outlines and flattened colors that are characteristic of post-impressionist art. Intriguingly, the woman looks over her shoulder while holding a camera on a tripod, symbolizing both her role as subject and photographer. This duality reflects the interconnectedness between artist and muse during this period. The setting is identified as 9 Place Pigalle, known for its bohemian atmosphere at the time. The poster serves not only as an advertisement but also as an artistic representation of photography itself. Toulouse-Lautrec's mastery shines through in his use of brushwork, crayon techniques, and spatter effects to create depth and texture within the print. The result is a visually striking composition that showcases his unique style within post-impressionism. Now housed at Musee Toulouse-Lautrec in Albi, France, this print continues to captivate viewers with its graphic appeal and timeless depiction of Parisian culture from over a century ago.
