This 1895 lithograph by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, titled "Affiche pour le livre Le Tocsin in de krant La Dépêche de Toulouse", is a striking example of the artist's distinctive style. The poster advertises the novel "Le Tocsin" in the newspaper "La Dépêche de Toulouse" using a simplified, almost caricatured figure of a woman in a long dress. The poster's muted tones and bold lines, characteristic of Art Nouveau, create a strong visual impact. This poster is currently held in the Rijksmuseum, showcasing the artist's prolific work within graphic design and his engagement with the Parisian artistic landscape.
