The Englishman at the Moulin Rouge (1892). Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, 1864-1901). Lithograph printed in black, green, gray, blue, orange-red, and yellow on cream laid paper. Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute.To contemporary viewers, Toulouse-Lautrec’s inclusion of recognizable figures, here, English painter William Tom Warrener, in his scenes of famous Parisian nightspots added another level of interest. The cropping of the image enhances the sense of immediacy by bringing the viewer into the conversation between the two protagonists. The man’s inclined posture and leering expression make clear the nature of their exchange. -- source link
