Although Toulouse-Lautrec's life was cut tragically short, his brief career coincided with the rising popularity of lithography, a medium which helped to secure Lautrec’s place in art history. He used it produce vivid advertising posters promoting Monmartre’s louche performers, giving them a celebrity status and elevating lithography into the realms of high-art.
