Ce que dit la pluie is a 1895 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a woman in a wide-brimmed hat and a long coat, walking with a small dog. The lines are loose and quick, like they were drawn fast. Behind her, an umbrella tilts sideways in the rain. The artist used a simple tool—just pencil-like marks on paper—to create this scene. It looks like they were working fast, maybe outside in the rain. Next, check out lithography to see how artists make prints like this one.
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.
