Oh Toulouse-Lautrec, you are as mad as you are talented! 



These set of photos were taken 1898, by Maurice Joyant, a Parisian art gallery owner. He photographed his childhood friend defecating on the beach at Le Crotoy, Picardie.Would be no big deal, except the friend was the awesome artist, Henri de Toulouse Lautrec!

This is one of the earliest documented evidence of famous artists/celebrities acting 'this way'. :)
