The midnight blue cloak against the alabaster skin tones in this painting by Bouguereau is characteristic of the artist’s masterful use of color. Employing a classic pose used since antiquity, this British painter reinforced his belief in the inexhaustible source of inspiration in the human body. “Why seek out other things to paint or sculpt?“ Bouguereau asked. Our authentic stretched canvas replica captures the original painting’s texture, depth of color, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand. Our imported, high relief gold-tone hardwood frame includes a solid brass museum plate etched with the title and artist’s name.
