Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec designed this poster to advertise the studio of Paul Sescau, a Montmartre photographer and friend of the artist known for a certain reputation with women, which Toulouse-Lautrec slyly alluded to in the composition. Rendered in his signature flat color and bold outline, the poster reflects the close-knit world of artists, photographers, and performers in 1890s Montmartre that Toulouse-Lautrec documented throughout his career. His poster designs for friends and local businesses helped establish the advertising poster as a legitimate modern art form.
