Yvette Guilbert is a 1894 ink by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The image depicts a woman in profile, facing right, with her head turned slightly towards the viewer. She wears a hat and a long coat with a high collar, and holds a cane in her right hand. The background is a solid color, with the title "Yvette Guilbert" written in gold letters at the top. The woman's face is rendered in a simplified, almost cartoon-like style, with bold lines and minimal details. Her hair is pulled back, and her hat is adorned with a feather. The overall effect is one of elegance and sophistication. The artist's use of bold lines and bright colors creates a sense of energy and movement, drawing the viewer's eye to the woman's face.
