Each episode of Palettes intensively investigates the work of a major Western artist. Each individual painting is carefully considered, from its subject matter to the techniques used in its construction. Guided by Alain Jaubert of the Louvre, viewers stand witness to the painting secrets revealed through the use of modern technologies like x-rays and video animation. In Palettes: Great Artists and Their Paintings -- Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, viewers examine Decoration pour la Baraque de La Goulue, two paintings originally composed to decorate a cancan dancer's carnival booth and the paintings that ironically launched the painter's reputation. ~ Rob Ferrier, Rovi
