Toulouse Lautrec

Henry de Toulouse-Lautrec se gana la reputación de pintor del vicio y los bajos fondos en el marginal barrio de Montmartre a fines del siglo XIX, donde los burgueses iban a encanallarse en compañía de hampones y chicas de mala vida. Pero, a principios del año 1895, un sórdido asunto sacude el ambiente de la noche de Montmartre: unas jóvenes de buena familia desaparecieron sin dejar testigos. Las sospechas se concentran en el entorno de Toulouse-Lautrec. ¿Y si sus pinturas contaran más de lo que parece?

They appeared in a period of upheaval. They saw the rebuilding of Paris, the rise of industrialism, the ruin of the Franco-Prussian war. They displayed their startling and shocking works in a series of exhibitions from 1874 to 1886.

"They" were the Impressionists, and Professor Brettell is your expert curator and guide to a movement that created a new, intensely personal vision of the world.
