Toulouse-Lautrec and the Moulin Rouge
Toulouse-Lautrec and the Moulin Rouge are often mentioned together for good reason: the work he did there was the high point of his career and the Moulin Rouge would have been just another Montmartre entertainment venue without Toulouse-Lautrec’s creative spark.
