Brandes and Leloir in "Cabotins" (Brandès et Leloir dans "Cabotins") is a 1894 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This lithograph in olive green on velin paper shows two people, a man and a woman, dressed in what appears to be theatrical costumes. The man is wearing a suit, and the woman has a high-necked dress with a bow at her neck. The figures are drawn in a loose, sketchy style, with bold lines and minimal detail. The overall effect is one of energy and movement, as if the figures are about to spring to life.
