Toulouse-Lautrec and the Fin-de-siecle by David Sweetman
Toulouse-Lautrec and the fin-de-siecle offers a fascinating and refreshing look at the artist s life and art in close unison to reveal the true Lautrec, one suprisingly linked to the political and social movements of his time. Lautrec s subjects, the bars and dance-halls of Montmatre offer a view of Paris as a turbulent century of expansion and development drew to its close and so by unlocking the meaning of his major work, David Sweetman presents a new and deeper insight into this complex man, his art and the fin-de-siecle itself.
David Sweetman is a biographer, art-historian and poet . Before becoming a writer he worked for the BBC and has made arts documentaries. He now lives in London and Northern France.
