French-Fried. In France, where the vogue first caught on, it is known either as Concierge or Goulue, after Toulouse-Lautrec's mussy-haired jolie-laide. It was Parisian Hairdresser Christophe Carita who contrived an early Goulue 18 months ago (never-minding Brigitte Bardot, who had been topping her bikinis with it for a good while before that). Carita's colleague Alexandre got into the Concierge-Goulue act with a high-piled version winding up with a "brioche" for such style-setting clients as Princess Grace of Monaco and Vicomtesse Jacqueline de Ribes...

Humble Form. Given this predilection, it was only natural that Munch should ultimately turn to the simplest, most stylized artistic medium then in use -graphics. In the 1890s, lithographs were undergoing an artistic revival in Paris under the gifted impetus of Bonnard and Toulouse-Lautrec, while Gauguin was experimenting with the woodcut. Munch, in his turn, became almost as influential as they...

Paul Viaud as an Admiral is the last canvas that Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec ever worked on-and it is a far cry from his usual coquettes and dancing girls. Viaud was a family friend hired by the Countess de Toulouse-Lautrec to look after her deformed son and keep him away from the bottle. It proved an impossible task. But Lautrec seems to have appreciated Viaud's efforts, and slaved away at his portrait until too weak to stand upright on his maimed legs. It was still unfinished when Lautrec died...

Posters in the U.S. have rarely achieved the artistry that was common in Europe in the days when Toulouse-Lautrec limned Jane Avril. Promoters too often preferred to slap uninspired or badly lettered placards on walls and fences. But in the past six years, U.S. art lovers have become accustomed to seeing the works of Robert Indiana, Roy Lichtenstein, Richard Lindner and Ben Shahn on posters boosting concerts, festivals and even the presidential campaign. Many of the best were inspired by a Connecticut grandmother and art collector named Vera List...

DEGAS for these and other reasons was very fruitful and influential for the younger generation, among whom were Lautrec, Vuillard, Bonnard, and other post-impressionists. Indeed, there are those who will contend that Lautrec built solidly and indispensably on every aspect of Degas' production. Far more exciting, I feel, is the way in which his own indefatigable efforts lightened the historical burden for the next great inheritor, Henri Matisse, and facilitated the transition into the twentieth century. This was my personal discovery in the show, the piece of puzzle that so happily fell into place for me. Just as Degas...
