From the collection of National Gallery of Art
"Linger, Longer, Loo" is a 1898 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a quick, loose drawing of a person lying down, arms stretched out. The lines are rough and uneven, like a fast sketch. The background is just a plain, light-colored paper with no extra details. The artist used simple strokes to capture the shape and movement. This style was common in quick studies or practice drawings. Check out lithography to see how this kind of sketch 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.
