Of noble birth, rich, mischievous, dissolute, and a dwarf: his characteristics are not those which one readily associates with the creation of great art. And yet it was this curious combination of personal characteristics which provided the mainspring of his artistic urge. Thus any study of Lautrec's work must begin with an elucidation of his personality. Lautrec was descended on his father's side from the semi~royal Counts of Toulouse; that is to say, he came of a family which could trace its ancestry back, without a break, to the time of Charlemagne.".
