Toulouse Lautrec paintings of dancehall performers and prostitutes are personal and humanistic. They reveal the sadness and humor hidden behind rice powders and gaslights. Their influences were long lasting. To say the least, there would be no Andy Warhol, if there was no Lautrec.
In one of the Toulouse Lautrec paintings, known as The Streetwalker, Toulouse used oil thinned with turpentine on cardboard. This rendered visible his loose, sketchy brushwork. The transposition of this creature of the night to the bright light of day signalled Toulouse's fascination with sordid and dissolute subjects.
Featuring two of Toulouse's favourite cafe concert stars, Yvette Guilbert and Jane Avril, was one of the Toulouse Lautrec paintings, Divan Japonais. In the poster, Jane was seated in the foreground wearing one of her famously outlandish hats. Toulouse conveyed the essence of their personalities by exaggerating their characteristic features.
Gustave Courbet paintings were punctuated by scandal. Young Women from the Village set in the outskirts of Omans, was reproached nearly unanimously by critics, for the ugliness of the three young women and for the disproportionately small scale of the cattle, featured in the painting.
In one of Gustave Courbet paintings done on monumental canvas, The Painter's Studio, Gustave featured figures on the left, suggesting the various social types that appear in his canvases and figures on the right, portraying his friends and supporters. The meaning behind his unfinished painting remains enigmatic to this day.
During the 1850s, Gustave Courbet paintings went beyond the Omans subjects in their embrace of modernity. They captured the cafe culture of bohemian Paris through portraits of its denizens and works inspired by popular cafe songs. They also featured hunting scenes that brought Gustave critical and popular success.
