  • TOULOUSE-LAUTREC’S IRISH HAUNT IN PARIS

    Away from bohemian Montmartre The Irish and American Bar on the Rue Royale on Paris’ upscale Right Bank was Toulouse-Lautrec’s favourite haunt. This was the setting for a poster advertising the American journal, The Chap Book. An 1895 lithograph in colours by Toulouse Lautrec of The Chap Book comes up at Sotheby’s prints and multiples day sale in New York on April 30. From a private collection in Chicago it is estimated at $20,000-30,000.
