Famous images of dancer Jane Avril, actor Aristide Bruant, and female acrobat clown Cha-U-kao are displayed in the high walled galleries along with many intimate lithographic printed drawings of Lautrec’s friends and of prostitutes. A slim gold painted picture rail crowning the gallery walls to visually reduce their scale cheapens the exhibition rather than make it more intimate.
