Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's *Jane Avril Dancing* (c. 1892) is a captivating portrayal of the famous Parisian dancer Jane Avril. Known for his depictions of the Parisian nightlife, Lautrec's use of bold lines and vibrant colors captures the energy and movement of the dance hall. The dancer's graceful pose and swirling dress create a dynamic composition, while the background, seemingly filled with spectators, reinforces the atmosphere of the performance.
