The Laundress, 1888. Toulouse-Lautrec made this drawing as an illustration for an article on "Summer in Paris" published in Paris illustr?, a magazine popular among the middle classes. Although the article singled out the laundress as a charming object of the male gaze on the streets of the city, the stooping posture and dark-circled eyes of this figure give her a haggard look that invites comparison with the workhorse behind her. The sharp receding perspective emphasizes the act of street-level spectatorship. A man's top hat visible in the coach behind the woman alludes to her subservient social and sexual role.
