About the piece

Painted around 1891, this evocative portrait depicts Jane Avril, the celebrated can-can dancer and close friend of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. The work showcases the artist's mastery of character, using a limited palette and energetic brushstrokes to highlight Avril's pale features beneath an extravagant plumed hat, reflecting the bohemian spirit of late 19th-century Paris.
