Book Synopsis Delphi Collected Works of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (Illustrated) by : Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec
Download or read book Delphi Collected Works of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (Illustrated) written by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2022-07-18 with total page 675 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading exponent of the French Post-Impressionists, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec observed and painted with great psychological insight the personalities and extraordinary characters of Parisian nightlife of the late nineteenth century. He was an exceptionally talented draughtsman, whose works conjure an unbridled sense of dynamism, propelled by his use of free-flowing and expressive line. Unlike van Gogh, Munch and Gauguin, his works never explore his own feelings and emotions, but those that are being conveyed from outside — from the subjects themselves, offering a unique voice in the development of modern art. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail.
