Doctor is a 1900 by Thomas Rowlandson, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting, titled "Doctor," depicts a group of people gathered around a man sitting in a chair. The man in the chair appears to be ill or injured, as he is being examined by another figure. The scene is rendered in muted colors, with the figures dressed in attire typical of the late 18th or early 19th century. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figure. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, adding a sense of energy and movement to the painting. The painting is held at The Cleveland Museum of Art.
