Woman before a Mirror 1897

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's 1897 painting, "Woman before a Mirror", depicts a nude woman standing before a mirror. The figure is rendered in a bold, almost graphic style, characteristic of Lautrec's work. The artist's use of color is particularly striking, with the woman's skin rendered in a pale, almost luminous tone against a rich, dark background. The composition, with its emphasis on the woman's body, highlights the themes of sensuality and self-reflection that are prevalent in Lautrec's work.
