Toulouse-Lautrec and Suzanne Valadon: The Painters of Montmartre
Korean original:
툴루즈 로트렉과 수잔 발라동 : 몽마르트르의 화가들
Centered on Toulouse-Lautrec and Suzanne Valadon, the exhibition looks at the painters of Montmartre at the end of the 19th century. The works come from the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum in Albi, France, the Musée de Montmartre and private collections, and the organizers say it is the first time they are shown in Korea. It runs in nine chapters, from the two artists' early training through cafés and cabarets and the theatre and circus to Parisian women and new ways of seeing the female body. It also marks 140 years of diplomatic relations between Korea and France, and is held in Gallery 1 of the Sejong Art Museum.

01About
Prints fall roughly into four kinds. Relief printing cuts away what is not wanted and inks the raised surface, as in woodcut; intaglio fills with ink the lines cut or bitten with acid into a metal plate, as in etching; lithography relies on oil and water repelling each other; and screenprinting pushes ink through a mesh. Goya's Disasters of War uses etching for the lines and aquatint for areas of tone; its 82 plates were made between 1810 and 1820 but only published in 1863. Kim Jeong-ho's Daedongyeojido of 1861 is a map printed from woodblocks. There are exceptions: a monotype is painted on a smooth plate and printed only once, so each one is unique.
02In the gallery
Read the technique on the label (woodcut, etching, lithograph, screenprint, monotype), then look closely below the image for a pencilled number and signature, such as 14/50.

03Notes
Prints come from relief, intaglio, planographic, and stencil plates, and each leaves different lines and ink.
