Les Tuileries

Edouard Vuillard

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of abstract forms resembling figures standing near a railing. The composition includes tree foliage, a vertical textured form resembling a rock or wall, and a seating area with two benches. The figures are drawn in thick, textured strokes and blur the boundary between human form and abstract shapes. A lattice design decorates the railing they stand by, creating an impression of an outdoor setting.
