Collection/1800s

A table of regulars at the famous Paris cabaret late at night, painted by one of its most loyal customers. Toulouse-Lautrec put himself in: the short man in the bowler hat at the back, walking past next to his tall cousin.
Look at the right-hand edge, where a woman’s face is lit from below in a ghostly green. The strip of canvas with her face was cut off at some point and later sewn back on.
