The Pursuit is a 1893 ink by Félix Vallotton, a Impressionism work, depicting Sheet Music, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows a man in a hat chasing a woman down a dark, empty street. The woman looks back, her long dress trailing behind her. The man’s shadow stretches long across the pavement. Félix Vallotton made this in 1893. It’s a lithograph, not a painting. Lithography uses greasy ink on stone. The artist carved the image onto a smooth surface, then printed it on paper.
