Cover, Yvette Guilbert is a 1898 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a woman in mid-motion, her arms raised as if dancing or gesturing. She’s dressed in a loose, flowing outfit with a high collar and a draped shawl. The lines are quick and sketchy, capturing her energy more than her details. The name "Yvette Guilbert" is written at the top, and the artist’s signature is scrawled in the corner. It looks like a quick study—maybe for a poster or program. If you like this style, check out lithography to see how artists print images like this.
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.
