Period Paper is thrilled to offer a collection of colorful tipped-in prints and rotogravures that focuses on the work of Post-Impressionist and Art Nouveau artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. A man of short stature and unusually bad health, coupled with severe alcoholism, he found it difficult to lead the life of a healthy male, preferring to devote a lot of the time to art. He did enjoy the Parisian cabarets however, finding in them the inspiration for a lot of his work. Each of his pieces is a fascinating study in Parisian life at the turn of the century, and a revealing example of how he saw the world around him.
