Toulouse-Lautrec Pt. 2 : A Life Book

Debauched aristocrat, cabaret painter, accidental dwarf? Julia Frey's definitive, superbly researched biography strips away the myth of Toulouse-Lautrec to reveal the tortured man beneath. This is a remarkable and compelling portrait, featuring 135 photos and illustrations.

Based on ten years of meticulous research and more than a thousand previously unavailable family letters, this definitive biography cuts through the distortions promoted by the artist's family and the legends he created himself. Frey tells of the dramatic events that really formed the renowed French artist. Over 100 illustrations, some in color.
