Description
English: Gallery Label: From 1889 to 1891, Lautrec experimented with the plein-air approach of the Impressionists, producing a group of studies showing figures set against the foliage in the garden of Monsieur (Père) Forest, his neighbor in the Paris district of Montmartre. Lautrec referred to these self-imposed exercises in technique as "impositions," for which friends as well as models posed. The clothes and hairstyle of this sitter suggest that she is a working-class woman.
