Ambassadeurs: Aristide Bruant - Toulouse-Lautrec
Starting at: £89.50
Lautrec's poster reproduced in Oil Paintings
Ambassadeurs: Aristide Bruant presents rather than portrays Bruant. Standing in a doorway, a sinister silhouette lingering behind him, he cuts a grand figure holding broad dominion. Still wearing his gloves and carrying a walking stick, he enters the elite caf?©s as a ruffian just off the streets. Lautrec's long familiarity with Bruant, his act, his costume, and repertoire resulted in a daringly abstract summation that established the singer's image for the rest of his career. Today the Lithograph has been carefully recreated in Oil paints on to canvas.
Oil Painting Canvas Art
Lautrec stayed in the Montmartre section of Paris, the center of the cabaret entertainment and bohemian life that he loved to paint. Circuses, dance halls and nightclubs, racetracks--all these spectacles were set down on canvas or made into lithographs. This artwork can be reproduced with the same emotions and beauty as the original.
