"Elles" is a notable series of lithographs created by the French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec between 1896 and 1897. This collection is particularly significant as it provides an intimate and empathetic portrayal of the lives of Parisian prostitutes, a subject that was both controversial and groundbreaking at the time. Toulouse-Lautrec, known for his keen observation and unique ability to capture the essence of Parisian nightlife, approached this series with a sense of humanity and respect that was uncommon in the depictions of sex workers during the late 19th century.

The "Elles" series consists of a dozen lithographs, each offering a glimpse into the private and often mundane moments of the women’s lives. Unlike the sensationalized and often moralistic portrayals of prostitutes in contemporary art and literature, Toulouse-Lautrec’s works are characterized by their candidness and lack of judgment. The artist lived among these women, gaining their trust and observing their daily routines, which allowed him to depict them with a rare authenticity and sensitivity.

The lithographs in "Elles" are marked by Toulouse-Lautrec’s distinctive style, featuring bold lines, simplified forms, and a limited color palette. This stylistic approach not only highlights the emotional depth of the subjects but also underscores the artist’s innovative contributions to the art of lithography. The series includes scenes of women engaging in everyday activities such as bathing, dressing, and resting, thereby humanizing them and challenging the stigmatized perceptions of their profession.

"Elles" was initially met with mixed reactions, as the subject matter was considered provocative. However, it has since been recognized as a significant work in Toulouse-Lautrec’s oeuvre, reflecting his compassionate perspective and his commitment to portraying the realities of marginalized individuals. Today, "Elles" is celebrated for its artistic merit and its progressive portrayal of women, offering a poignant insight into the lives of those who were often overlooked and misunderstood in society.
