The passenger in cabin 54,
dressed in gold and yellow,
sat and watched the sea, the billowing waves
as the sun cast its golden net,
and every evening as she watched
her hand dropped the book she read,
perhaps trying to connect with what the waves said,
she lost the thread
of the narrative which she held in her hand.
Thanks for the image Anu X.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec
24 November 1864 – 9 September 1901
Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa was a French painter, printmaker, draughtsman and illustrator whose immersion in the colourful and theatrical life of Paris in the late 19th century allowed him to produce a collection of enticing, elegant and provocative images of the modern, sometimes decadent, life of those times.

Due to a genetic weakness resulting from the consanguineous marriage of his parents (who were first cousins), Lautrec’s legs ceased growing after he broke both his femur bones in separate, minor accidents during his adolescence. As an adult, Lautrec had a normally proportioned upper body, but the stubby legs of a dwarf; his mature height was barely five feet, and he walked with great difficulty using a cane.
The style and content of Lautrec’s posters were heavily influenced by Japanese ukiyo-e prints. Areas of flat color bound by strong outlines, silhouettes, cropped compositions, and oblique angles are all typical of woodblock prints by artists like Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) (JP1847) and Ando Hiroshige (1797–1858)
