拍品專文

The present work depicts Madame Juliette Baron, who ran a brothel in the Rue des Moulins, Paris, and her daughter Popo, who worked there. It is a preparatory sketch for one of two similar lithographs in the Elles series that represented prostitutes going about the more mundane elements of their lives. The series was produced after Toulouse-Lautrec spent what were often weeks at a time living very closely with the women of this and other Maison Closes between 1892 and 1895.

There is a closely related sketch of Mademoiselle Popo's head and shoulders in the Musée du Louvre, Paris (D.D.4.479).
