Toulouse-Lautrec e il Circolo Artistico Britannico

Gli anni '90 dell'Ottocento

Questa sala, la prima di tre dedicate agli anni '90 dell'Ottocento, ci introduce all'opera di Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec e a come questa abbia interagito con l'arte Britannica.

Quando il XIX secolo volgeva ormai al termine, gli Inglesi sempre più guardarono alla cultura Francese come sinonimo di moderna decadenza. Il lavoro di Tolouse-Lautrec era ben noto al pubblico Britannico, per il quale i poster realizzati dall'artista emanavano l'esotismo e il fascino per l’artificio del mondo teatrale Francese.
