1896
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
La Passagère du 54 is a 1896 by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows a woman in a yellow deck chair by the water. She’s wearing a light hat and a dark coat, leaning back with one arm resting on the armrest. The chair’s slats are bright yellow, and the water behind her is dark blue with a few boats. A dog sits on the ground nearby, and a small red plant is in the corner. Notice how the artist used bold colors and simple shapes to show her relaxed pose. The lines are loose, almost like a quick sketch, but still full of life. If you like this style, look up Impressionism next.
Comte Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec-Montfa (24 November 1864 – 9 September 1901), known as Toulouse-Lautrec (French: ), was a French painter, printmaker, draughtsman, caricaturist, and illustrator.
