MFA-Toulouse-Lautrec Exhibition-2019






Toulouse-Lautrec and the Stars of Paris

Museum of Fine Arts-Boston-April 7-August 4, 2019


The exhibition explores the celebrity culture of Lautrec’s time and the artist’s fascination with its stars, both the roles that they played and their personal lives. With expressive lines and brazen colors, the artist captured the spectacle of the fin de siècle in evocative posters, prints, and paintings. “Toulouse-Lautrec and the Stars of Paris” is organized in partnership with the Boston Public Library


  There were around 70-plus paintings, sculptures, photographs, artifacts by Lautrec contemporaries (e.g., Degas, Picasso, Mary Cassatt, etc.) alongside 100-plus Lautrec works to compare how artists portrayed turn-of-the-century Paris.
