Frontispiece for "Elles"

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

National Gallery of Art

The image is of a person standing with their back to the viewer, lifting their bright red-orange long hair with both hands. They are wearing a gown that has a deep blue lower half and a pale, ruffled top section in a lighter shade. Around the person are muted beige tones, sketch-like lines, and a top hat resting on a surface to the left. The background shows an abstract design with light brushstrokes and a faded pattern, creating a soft, vintage ambiance.
