LAUTREC BY LAUTREC

PH. Huisman and M. G. Dortu

Translated and Edited by Corinne Bellow

Chartwell Books, Inc., Secaucus, NJ, 1964

Large format hardcover book, very good condition, slight lean to spine, otherwise very nice, clean and tight throughout. dust jacket is poor, but present in one piece. 

A wealth of hitherto unpublished material from the files of Mme. M. G. Dortu,who inherited all the artist's pictures and correspondence from Maurice Joyant, Lautrec's close friend and dealer, provides a new image of the artists.  Informal photographs of the artist taken in his studio and on outings with his friends-reveal new facets of Lautrec's personality; the many pictures of his models, acquaintances, and scenes he knew, placed in juxtaposition with his paintings and drawings of them, throw new light on his work. 

Philippe Huisman writes with grace, affection, and perception about Lautrec's life and the value of his work.  With Mme. Dortu he has edited and woven into a compelling narrative the facts disclosed by many hitherto unpublished letters, diaries, interviews, and recollections of the artist's friends.

Never before has such a great number of reproductions of Lautrec's paintings, lithographs, and drawings been brought together, and rarely has any volume contained so many documents and facts about a single artist.  Together, text and pictures provide a warm, moving story of an engaging personality and a thoroughly documented account of his work. 

This is a Large & Heavy volume. USPS Media Rate postage will be calculated @ 7 pounds weight
