Lebaudy Trial - Testimony of Mlle. Marsy (Procès Lebaudy - Déposition de Mlle. Marsy) is a 1896 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a woman sitting in a chair, her body turned slightly to the side. Her hair is drawn in quick, loose strokes, and her face is simple but expressive. The lines are rough and uneven, like a fast, rough drawing. The artist used a red-brown color that looks almost like a sketch in chalk. This style makes the image feel urgent and alive, like it was drawn quickly. Next, check out lithography to see how this print was made.
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.
