More than 30 pieces from Toulouse-Lautrec's esteemed career, including his first poster of the Moulin Rouge and the cancan dancers of La Troupe de Mademoiselle Eglantine, will be shown alongside works by other celebrated artists of the day. Steinlein’s iconic Tournée du Chat Noir, an advert for Ruinart champagne by Alphonse Mucha and theatre posters by Jules Cheret will feature with eye-catching work by other masters of Belle Époque Paris.
His work brings the famous and flamboyant characters of Montmartre to life, and features Paris’s most popular cafés, cabarets, and entertainers including stage stars Yvette Guilbert, Jane Avril and Loïe Fuller.
This is the only chance to see Lautrec’s complete collection of posters exhibited together in the UK before it moves to a permanent home at the Musée d’Ixelles in Belgium, so make sure you don't miss out on seeing this incredible show!
We'll be holding a series of talks and events to accompany the exhibition that will bring to life the joie de vivre of the Belle Époque, and transport you to Toulouse-Lautrec's Paris. Further details will be announced in the spring.
The exhibition runs from 26 April - 29 September 2024. Buy tickets now.
