  4. At the Moulin Rouge
Painting, heavy in tones of blue-green and burnt orange, depicting a bar scene at night. The men wear top hats and many are bearded; the women are dressed in voluminous gowns and decorative hats. Five people converse in the center of the composition and a woman with a green face dominates the right foreground.
