At the Concert (Au concert) is a 1896 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting depicts a man and woman in a concert setting, with the woman holding a fan and wearing a hat. The man is dressed in a suit and top hat, with a flower on his lapel. The background is a warm orange color, with a yellow stripe running diagonally across the top left corner. The woman's face is blurred, but her expression appears to be one of concentration or enjoyment. The man's face is also blurred, but his posture suggests he is engaged in the music. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of elegance and sophistication. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Toulouse-Lautrec, Henri de.
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.
