La Blanchisseuse, sold at auction for $22.4 million in 2005, exemplifies his early talent, but it’s the later depictions of Montmartre that truly define his legacy. Toulouse-Lautrec’s life was tragically cut short at the age of 36 on September 9, 1901, a consequence of years battling alcoholism and syphilis.

Around 1909, Utrillo entered a distinctive phase of his work known as the "White Period." During these years, his approach to the canvas became deeply physical. This method allowed him to capture the weathered walls and timeworn facades of the Montmartre streets he knew so well. Utrillo remains a singular figure in the history of the School of Paris, largely because he was one of the few notable painters of Montmartre who was actually born and raised within the district.
On view at To experience the quiet, textured streets of Montmartre through his eyes, one can travel to several major institutions.
