Jane Avril Dancing (1892). Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, 1864-1901). Oil on cardboard. Musée d'Orsay, Paris.Avril wore a full-skirted dress of white muslin that was gathered in a narrow embroidered collar at the neck, and had wide sleeves. With this she wore a kind of beret on which a few feathers swayed. Trademark of her choreography was a particular pose in which her left leg was raised high and swiveled wildly back and forth. -- source link
