KateLacour :

So I heard that the sex workers he hung with nicknamed him “the teapot” because he was short and stout and had a huge spout

Alexis :

my introduction to Toulouse as a kid

aislinnbyrne :

Fine. I’ll watch the whole video. What’ve I got Toulouse?

goodfellowglenn :

John Leguizamo in the film Moulin Rouge!

shellgirl :

Art history degree here. Why did I not know he was tiny?

lavegetalienne :

Wow I didn't realize how short his artistic time was, died in his 30s 😭. Always preferred him over Degas, Gauguin and those other problematic more famous artists.

youseemfoolish :

We should all self analyze in order to figure out what our own alcohol filled walking cane is. We all have one.

paul_blart_mall_blart :

Isn’t 3 parts absinthe: 3 parts cognac a lot like 1 part absinthe: 1 part cognac??

Somebody’s mama :

Vin Vo :

moonbootz :

what a wonderful mom he had to save all his works of art like that. we are lucky!

Annette Dubrouillet :

The museum of his work is in Albi, France. I visited just two months ago and it is amazing. I had no idea the level of his talent. Highly recommend the museum. And the city of Albi is a wonderful place to visit, as well.

Jess Fox :

in the dance studio I went to had a poster of the picture below that said "you can't can-can if your shoe's Toulouse" with the picture altered of her shoe flying off. I loved that poster.

the_pandie :

I did a report on him in art class in high school. Such an interesting man.

Tilly :

I got to see his work in person and just stood in awe. He’s one of my favorites.

Maggie&Mr.Mason :

Excellent job on this art history lesson❤️

Chris.P.History :

Note: my original video cut out that in 1962 they did officially diagnose Henri with Pycnodysostosis and it is known also as Toulouse-Lautrec syndrome.It occurs in 1 In 1.7 Million people

Elaina Linzy :

I love that his artwork in Musee d’Orsay gets a window facing his old stomping grounds of Montmartre.
