His response was to immerse himself in the dross of society. He threw himself into the capital’s \u003ci\u003edemi-monde \u003c/i\u003eand chose to portray the more trivial – if vital – subjects: actresses, clowns, dancers, brothels, race-tracks.

At first influenced by the Impressionists – he particularly admired Degas – he produced classics in many media: oil paintings, posters, lithographs and drawings, a selection of which are here reproduced in 48 full-colour plates, forming an ideal introduction to this most spontaneous of artists.\u003c/p\u003e","webReviews":"\u003cp\u003eOn the \u003cem\u003eColour Library\u003c/em\u003e Series\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026quot;Ideal introductions for students and museum-goers.\u0026quot;\u0026#8212;\u003cem\u003eIndependent\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026quot;Phaidon\u0026#8217;s excellent \u003cem\u003eColour Library\u003c/em\u003e series: [...] a good introduction to nearly 50 key artists and movements in art history.\u0026quot;\u0026#8212;\u003cem\u003eAntiques Trade Gazette\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026quot;The Phaidon Colour Library Series provides an invaluable introduction to key artists and movements in art history.\u0026quot;\u0026#8212;\u003cem\u003eArt \u0026amp; Craft\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e","webShortDescription":"An introduction to the work of Toulouse-Lautrec."}
