La Goulue

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a drawing of a man and a woman dancing. The woman has her hair in an updo, wears a blouse with puffed sleeves, and has one arm around the man's shoulder. The man is taller, wearing a top hat and a suit, with one arm raised in a dancing pose. The background has sketchy outlines of other figures, possibly dancers or an audience. The artwork uses minimal color, focusing on line and shading for form and movement.
