19th Century Paris: From the Bourgeois to the Bawdy

Henri de Toulouse Lautrec frequented the most famous cabarets, banquets, and brothels of Paris, documenting the inner-life of these institutions with a dry and sometimes devastating candor. It is the nightlife of fin de siècle Paris, its cabarets and theaters, patrons and performers, that Lautrec immortalized in his art—marrying technical virtuosity and wry wit in these unvarnished portraits of modern manners.
