Raphaël; Salomé is a 1896 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, depicting Toulouse, held at National Gallery of Art.
Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s lithograph shows a woman in a low-cut dress with a black bow in her hair. She holds a silver platter with a small round object that looks like a head. This isn’t a biblical Salomé. Lautrec made the print to advertise a cabaret show, not a religious story. The rough edges and bold lines show how lithography lets ink pop off the stone. Look up Toulouse-Lautrec, Henri de next.
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.
