Description   

In their day, the American collectors Louisine (1855-1929) and H. O. Havemayer (1847-1907) amassed one of the largest and most representative collections of Courbet's works. This one, their first nude by Courbet, was acquired in early 1892, when their Tiffany-designed New York residence was nearing completion.
