a painting by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, depicting a lively scene at a French cabaret. The central figure is a performer, dressed in a vibrant yellow blouse with ruffled sleeves and dark green pants, with one hand resting casually in their pocket. The performer's face is pale with bold red lips, and they wear a distinctive yellow hat adorned with a white feather. In the background, other figures, likely patrons of the cabaret, engage in conversation. The scene is set against a richly detailed backdrop that suggests the interior of a bustling entertainment venue, likely the Moulin Rouge or a similar location, common in Toulouse-Lautrec's work. The artist's use of bold colors and expressive brushstrokes captures the vibrant energy of Parisian nightlife during the late 19th century.

The Oskar Reinhart Collection Am R繹merholz in狸interthur, Switzerland, is one of the most remarkable art museums of its kind, with a collection that ranges from superlative old master paintings and drawings to a fabled group of Impressionist art.涌eaturing over 200 paintings, the collection was assembled in the first half of the 20th畚entury by Oskar Reinhart (1885-1965), whose family was associated with one of the worlds leading trading companies.泭 Reinhart bequeathed his collection and house to the Swiss confederation, and it opened as a public museum in 1970 in his beautiful, large villa on the outskirts of Winterthur, close to Zurich, called Am R繹merholz.泭
