Toulouse-Lautrec wearing Jane Avril's Feathered Hat and Boa (ca. 1892) is the informal title to a photo by French photographer Maurice Guibert (1856 - 1913). It depicts French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864 – 1901) wearing Jane Avril's feathered hat, cloak and feather boa.
The photo is housed in the Musée Toulouse-Lautrec.
On March 19, 1892 Toulouse-Lautrec, dressed in Jane Avril’s clothes to attend the 'Women's ball' (bal des femmes) held by the Courrier français at the Élysée Montmartre[1].
Here[2] is a version of that photo in the book La vie de Toulouse Lautrec (1958) by Henri Perruchot.
