Monsieur Boileau at the Café, 1893. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, 1864-1901). Gouache; sheet: 80 x 65 cm (31 1/2 x 25 9/16 in.); framed: 105.4 x 89.5 x 8.3 cm (41 1/2 x 35 1/4 x 3 1/4 in.). The sitter, perhaps a certain Mr. Bolleau, must have been a friend of Lautrec, who dedicated this work to him at the upper left. He may have been the iron merchant-heavy set and wearing a bowler hat-who also appears in a line drawing by the artist. This drawing, the first by the artist to enter an American museum collection, is a prime example of Lautrec's ability to capture the atmosphere of Paris café life.
