Joslyn acquired this masterpiece as a gift from Francis T.B. Martin in 1951. It stands more than 6 feet 7 inches tall and it's worth making a trip to Omaha to admire it in person. It's rumored that Bouguereau's mistress served as his inspiration for the painting. Through the years, the painting has been attacked twice, once in 1890 and again in 1976. Thankfully, only a small amount of damage resulted each time. The attackers, separated by more than 80 years, were offended by the painting's sensual nudity. We're truly dumbfounded by the 1976 attack.Kindness forward: Joslyn Art Museum This Museum-quality, fine art Giclée print is made for you using archival ink on archival paperYour fine art Giclée will remain beautiful for you for over 300 yearsWe print all of our classic prints on smooth cotton rag paperYou have your choice of:28" x 46" (our full size) ~ $48019.5" x 32" (small size) ~ $280 Related Items Red-shouldered Hawks Passenger Pigeons Carolina Parrots Snowy Owls Our Price: $780.00 Our Price: $780.00 Our Price: $780.00 Our Price: $780.00 White-headed Eagle American Flamingo Our Price: $780.00 Our Price: $780.00
