About the piece

Painted in 1887, this early work by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec captures a young woman in a moment of quiet contemplation. The soft, dappled light and cool palette highlight the artist's engagement with Impressionist and Pointillist techniques, while the subject's direct gaze and the inclusion of her 'poudre de riz' (rice powder) create a compelling, grounded sense of Parisian everyday life.
