Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec was born in southern France and was the last in the line of an old aristocratic family. At the age of twelve, Toulouse-Lautrec broke his left leg and at fourteen his right leg. Because the bones didn’t grow back property, he was deprived of a normal physical life. Due to this, Toulouse-Lautrec lived completely for his art. He began drinking heavily and by the 1890s the drinking started to affect his health, ending in his death. I believe the Purpose of this painting reflects Toulouse-Lautrec view on the world and his own life. The bottle and glass of wine is referring to his own alcoholic problems. The woman staring off is probably thinking of their life and how depressed it is. The Genre is alcohol abuse since the piece is called “The Hangover”. The Audience is anyone who enjoys looking at Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec paintings. I believe the Stance reflects his own life and how he sees it. The piece is called “The Hangover” and is and oil painting which is the Media.
