Menu du réveillon offert aux amis du Théâtre Antoine is a 1894 ink by Henri-Gabriel Ibels, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a man in a hat bending over a dog that’s sitting up like a person. The background is mostly blank, but the left side lists a fancy dinner menu in French. The man looks tired, and the dog seems curious. The menu includes rich foods like oysters and champagne, but the man’s pose feels more like a joke than a real meal. The drawing is simple and loose, almost like a quick sketch. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how artists made prints like this.
Henri-Gabriel Ibels (1867–1936) was a French artist, born in 10ᵗʰ arrondissement of Paris.
