Dame, Mme Louise Michel Angloise en andere cafébezoekers 1868 - 1928

"Dame, Mme Louise Michel Angloise en andere cafébezoekers" is a sketch by Dutch artist Jan Toorop, created between 1868 and 1928. The artwork depicts a scene in a café, possibly a portrait of the famous French anarchist Louise Michel. It is a rapidly executed, highly expressive drawing with a strong sense of movement. The composition is fragmented, emphasizing the artist's interest in capturing a fleeting moment. This sketch, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into Toorop's dynamic style, which blended elements of symbolism and impressionism.
