Yvette Guilbert: Chanson Ancienne

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts Yvette Guilbert in a reclined position, her head tilted back and to the right. Her hair appears to be styled in an updo. She is wearing a dress with a ruffled collar. The figure's left arm is bent at the elbow, with the hand resting on her lap or near her body. The right arm is not clearly visible. The background of the image features a light brown or beige color, with darker shading behind the figure, suggesting a wall or curtain. A white border surrounds the image. The overall style of the drawing appears to be a monochromatic, impressionistic sketch in shades of gray and beige.
