Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec designed this cover for "L'Estampe originale," a deluxe portfolio publication launched in 1893 to promote original artists' prints at a time when lithography was gaining new respect as a fine-art medium. The cover reflects Toulouse-Lautrec's mastery of the poster arts, using flat color, bold outline, and asymmetrical composition drawn from Japanese prints to advertise the publication itself. His contributions to "L'Estampe originale" helped cement the lithographic poster as a serious artistic form in 1890s Paris.
Jacquard-woven both sides in soft, durable yarn; insert included.

The reproduction quality is the best I have seen anywhere near this price. Anyone who loves Toulouse-Lautrec should have Cover for L'Estampe originale somewhere in the house. The finish is even and flawless right to the edges. The detail is sharp enough that I keep finding new things in it. I am thrilled with the whole experience. 👌
I ordered one for myself and immediately started thinking about who else would want one. 😍
Three weeks of waiting set my expectations higher than this could meet. People who know Toulouse-Lautrec recognize Cover for L’Estampe originale immediately and then start hunting for flaws. It is neither a win nor a loss.
Thank you for writing this up. We would rather hear the mixed reviews than only the happy ones, so this is genuinely useful.
The condition it arrived in tells me somebody packs these by hand. The size is exactly what the description said it would be. It has not shifted or sagged in six weeks. It was a good decision.
My mother liked hers so much that I ordered one too. I have been hunting for a good version of Cover for L'Estampe originale for two years.
