Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec – L’Artisan Moderne, 1950 Lithograph (after the 1894 poster, first state)
A 1950 four-color lithograph after Toulouse-Lautrec’s 1894 L’Artisan Moderne, depicting an intimate interior scene with a reclining woman, maid, and visiting artisan rendered in fluid line and muted color. The composition uses soft yellows, greens, and blue contours to create a psychologically charged, narrative moment, characteristic of Lautrec’s ability to blur satire and observation.
This posthumous lithograph reproduces the rare “first state” of the design, prior to the addition of advertising text. Rather than functioning as a straightforward commercial poster, the image plays on themes of seduction and parody, reflecting Lautrec’s subversive approach to advertising and his fascination with private Parisian interiors.
Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec L’Artisan Moderne 1950 lithograph, after the 1894 poster, first state without lettering. A notable interior scene combining figurative composition, subtle color, and narrative tension.
This Toulouse-Lautrec lithograph reproduction appeals to collectors of French poster art, Belle Époque interiors, and psychologically driven figural works, offering a more intimate and unconventional alternative to his cabaret imagery.
