Artist: Maximilien Luce
A man bends over his feet in a cramped bedroom while morning light cuts across the wall. The Metropolitan Museum identifies him as Gustave Perrot, Luce's friend and fellow painter.

This intimate scene combines an ordinary act of getting dressed with the ambitious experiments in color associated with Neo-Impressionism.
