1893
ink
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1893 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows a man in profile, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a long coat with bright red lapels. His face is drawn with bold lines, and he holds a cane in one hand while his other hand rests in his coat pocket. The background is plain, keeping all focus on his stylish outfit and confident pose. The sharp outlines and flat colors here aren’t realistic—they’re simplified, almost like a sketch. This style was popular in Paris at the time, especially for posters and prints. Next, check out lithography to see how artists like this made prints with smooth, clean lines.
Comte Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec-Montfa (24 November 1864 – 9 September 1901), known as Toulouse-Lautrec (French: ), was a French painter, printmaker, draughtsman, caricaturist, and illustrator.
