Painting Description
"Elles" is a series of lithographs created by the French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in 1896. This series, consisting of ten prints, marks a significant departure from the typical depictions of Parisian nightlife that Toulouse-Lautrec is best known for, such as those featuring cabarets and theaters. Instead, "Elles" focuses on the intimate, private lives of women, particularly prostitutes, during their everyday activities away from the public eye.
The series provides a candid and sympathetic portrayal of these women, showcasing them in moments of solitude or domesticity, such as waking up, grooming, or resting between encounters with clients. Toulouse-Lautrec's approach in "Elles" is notable for its humanizing perspective that contrasts sharply with the more exploitative or judgmental depictions of prostitutes common in the art of that era. The artist's use of soft lithographic crayon enhances the tender and personal ambiance of the scenes.
"Elles" was initially intended for commercial publication and was commissioned by the publisher Gustave Pellet, who was known for his involvement in the production of artistic prints. The series not only highlights Toulouse-Lautrec's mastery of the lithographic medium but also reflects broader themes in his work, such as the exploration of marginalized communities and the complexities of urban life at the turn of the century. The prints from the "Elles" series are considered significant in Toulouse-Lautrec's oeuvre, offering insight into his empathetic and nuanced portrayal of women who were often stigmatized by society.
