Henri de Toulouse Lautrec, "Babylone D'Allemagne", Unframed Lithograph on Paper, 24.5 x 36.5

$450.00

Babylone d’Allemagne, a mid‑20th‑century lithograph after Henri de Toulouse‑Lautrec, printed by the Mourlot presses, revisits the artist’s powerful poster created for Victor Joze’s publication. The scene unfolds with mounted soldiers in ceremonial dress and elaborately costumed figures, capturing the political tension and theatrical spectacle that define the composition. This later Mourlot edition preserves the drama, movement, and bold graphic language characteristic of Lautrec’s poster work.

Artist Bio

Henri de Toulouse‑Lautrec (1864–1901) was a French Post‑Impressionist painter, printmaker, and illustrator whose work defined the visual culture of Paris’s Belle Époque. Born into an aristocratic family in southern France, he settled in Montmartre, where he chronicled cabarets, performers, and nightlife through paintings and groundbreaking lithographic posters. Works such as Moulin Rouge: La Goulue and May Belfort elevated advertising to high art through bold composition, flattened color, and expressive line. Despite his short life, Toulouse‑Lautrec’s innovations in printmaking and graphic design continue to influence modern visual culture.
