Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec was born on November 24, 1864, in France. As one might suspect, Mr. de Toulouse-Lautrec was a French painter, printmaker, draughtsman, and illustrator. He is also well known for his contributions in the Post-Impressionist era. Toulouse-Lautrec's career was approximately 20 years in length. During this time he did some ceramic work, stained glass work, 363 prints and posters, 737 canvases, 275 watercolours, and an amazing 5,084 drawings. Wow, this artist was really busy!
