Publishers Description: Toulouse-Lautrec and the fin-de-siecle reveals an artist in tune with the radical social and political forces that transformed his age, who moved in the secret world of anarchist revolutionaires, who stood by Oscar Wilde when most had forsaken him, and whose work, when seen afresh, reveals a deep pre-occupation with human - and especially female - suffering.Toulouse-Lautrec and the fin-de-siecle is a cultural biography that places Lautrecs life and work in the context of an era of tumultuous social upheaval which produced a creative outpouring that has seldom been matched.
