Toulouse-Lautrec and Jane Avril
註釋The dancer Jane Avril was one of the stars of the Moulin Rouge. Known for her alluring style and unusual persona, her fame was assured by a series of dazzlingly inventive posters designed by the artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Instantly recognisable by her red hair and angular features, Jane Avril was an emblematic figure in Toulouse-Lautrec's world of Montmartre personalities. However, she was also a close friend of the artist. He painted a series of striking portraits of her which give a more private account of Avril, glimpsed off-stage. Presenting significant new research, Toulouse-Lautrec and Jane Avril examines this remarkable partnership which captured the excitement and spectacle of bohemian Paris in the 1890s. --
