Well, we didn't actually see the famous artist. He died about 1900. We did go to the National Gallery in Washington yesterday to see a special exhibit of his work. Toulouse-Lautrec created vivid posters to advertise performers and dancers. During his time the colored poster became a key to the success of several French dancehall personalities. Even if you are unfamiliar with his name, chance are you have seen one or more of his posters.
