Chicago's Art Institute of Chicago holds 6 works by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864–1901) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Toulouse-Lautrec's paintings and posters of Parisian nightlife have a graphic energy that comes from his background in printmaking and commercial illustration. In person, his paintings show a subtler side — the nervous, rapid line of his oil work is visible in a way that the bold poster style tends to obscure.
