Why Lautrec

Lautrec painted thinly, and that changes how the canvas should be hung

His surfaces are lean and graphic rather than thickly loaded, so they behave differently on a wall than a heavy Impressionist oil.

Lautrec often worked on board and on unprimed card, brushing oil out thin so the ground shows through. A good hand-painted version keeps that: open strokes, visible weave, colour that sits rather than builds. People expect a Van Gogh-style crust and are surprised by how restrained the surface is. Look at it in raking light and you see the drawing underneath, which is the honest part of his work.

Because the paint is thin, these canvases dislike glare. Hang them on a wall that gets indirect light, not opposite a west window. The cabaret scenes want 90cm or wider to hold their crowd; single dancers work from 60cm up. His palette runs to olive, oxblood, mustard and black, which sits well against warm white, clay or deep green walls and fights cool grey. Leave a frame narrow and dark, or skip it.

Questions people ask

Is this a print or a real painting?

A real painting. Every piece is hand-painted in oils on canvas by a professional artist. Nothing here is printed, and nothing is a print with paint dabbed on top.

How close is it to the original?

Very. Our artists work from high-resolution references of the original and match composition, colour and brushwork. Because it is painted by hand, no two are identical, which is rather the point.

What sizes can I order?

Seven standard sizes, from 60 × 50cm up to 200 × 135cm, and custom sizes on request. Open the size guide on any painting to see each size to scale next to a sofa.

Framed or unframed?

Your choice at checkout: stretched and ready to hang, rolled in a tube, or framed in floating, classic or ornate frames. A floating frame adds a few centimetres each side; an ornate frame adds roughly 8 to 12cm.

How long does it take?

21 to 28 days, because it is painted to order. Delivery is free and tracked anywhere in Australia.

What if I don't love it?

Thirty-day money-back guarantee. Tell us within thirty days of delivery and we will make it right or refund you.

About Lautrec & our reproductions

The life

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec — printmaker, draughtsman, illustrator and painter — stands beside Van Gogh, Cézanne and Gauguin among the greatest artists of the Post-Impressionist period. Childhood fractures that never healed properly left him with an adult-sized torso on child-sized legs, barely five feet tall; shut out of his family's aristocratic pursuits, he turned his attention wholly to art.

In a career of barely twenty years he produced 737 canvases, 275 watercolours, 263 prints and posters and more than 5,000 drawings, recording the dancers and singers of Montmartre in a highly linear style — sympathetic yet dispassionate. An alcoholic for most of his adult life, he died at thirty-six from complications of alcoholism and syphilis; his mother and his dealer later established the museum in Albi that bears his name.

Our reproductions

Every Lautrec reproduction at Direct Art Australia is 100% hand-painted in oils on artist canvas by professional artists — never a print. Our painters recreate his quick, linear strokes and theatrical cabaret colour with the same sketch-like energy that lights up the originals. Delivery is free Australia-wide.
