Study for the Laundress 1888

"Study for the Laundress" is a charcoal drawing by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec created in 1888. The drawing depicts a woman in profile, perhaps a laundress, carrying a basket, with another woman in the background. This study demonstrates Lautrec's mastery of capturing movement and everyday life in his art, a hallmark of his style. "Study for the Laundress" is part of the collection of the Musee Toulouse-Lautrec in Albi, France, offering a glimpse into the artist's creative process.
