The painting titled The Greens (Seated Woman in a Garden) exemplifies Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s Post-impressionism style, combining vivid colors and expressive brushwork. Created in 1889 as a panel of oil oil paints, it captures a red-haired woman, her back turned, as she sits almost nude just before or after bathing. The intimate portrait reveals Lautrec's sensitivity to everyday moments.
