Portrait of a portrait of Aristide Bruant.


I was a security guard at the Krannert Art Museum in Champaign, IL for a few years. During my time there, the museum had a Toulouse Lautrec Show, at roughly the same time as the Moulin Rouge movie...

His posters made a big impression on me and being a guard I spent a whole lot of time looking at them. So this drawing is based on one of his posters (drawn from memory), you recognize this, yes? (see below)
