About the piece

Created in 1887, this oil on canvas by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec captures a fleeting moment of solitude. The woman, viewed from a contemplative rear angle, sits before a drink in what appears to be a Parisian cafe, rendered with the artist's characteristic loose brushwork and keen observation of modern life.
