Interpretative study of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec:

The original curtains were filled in: I took out the colour and added in gathers. The top hat was filled in as well which I exchanged for crosshatching. This texture was further added  to the gloves and shoes. The lines of the floor have had their widths adjusted. I kept the light quality of the dress to contrast with the background. With the original being black and white, I opted for a tinge of colour to set her apart.
