La Goulue featured in many of Toulouse-Lautrec's works including his first poster for the Moulin Rouge in 1891. The present work was clearly a favoured study of the artist's, who appears to have incised the main contours of the figure in order to make transfers of the image. Toulouse-Lautrec was well-known use tracings in order to develop his compositions. A previous owner of this work was Dr. Gabriel Tapié de Celeyran, a cousin and close friend of the artist. Tapié de Celeyran was very tall and, in contrast to Toulouse-Lautrec's diminutive stature, the pair were known to create quite a stir when they appeared in public together.
