"La Patronne" is a drawing by the French artist Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen. This image depicts a humorous scene of a caught-in-the-act scenario. A woman in a nightgown, likely the titular "Patronne" (French for "boss") or landlady, is confronting a man in a suit who is caught red-handed with a young woman hiding her face in shame. The scene is filled with expressive gestures, making it a classic example of Steinlen's ability to capture the essence of everyday life in a humorous yet often poignant light, a hallmark of his artistic style.
