Too Demanding (Exigeante) is a 1900 ink by Paul-Albert Besnard, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting shows a man sitting in a chair, with his head resting on his hand. He is wearing a dark jacket and has a serious expression on his face. The background of the painting is dark, which makes the man stand out. The man's pose suggests that he is deep in thought, and the dark background adds to the sense of introspection. The painting's use of dark colors creates a somber mood, which draws the viewer's attention to the man's contemplative expression.
