Description: | The awkwardness of this sketch may imply that it was done at the beginning of Joséphine Bowes' artistic career. However, the title implies that it was made at Cernay-le-Roy, where she went on a long holiday in 1865, liking the place so much that her husband bought her a house there. Cernay was just outside the Forest of Rambouillet, south west of Paris, and was a popular with artists. Joséphine Bowes used her house regularly until about 1869, painting mainly the nearby forest. | Subjects: | figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Bowes, Joséphine (French artist, 1825-1874) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8949... | Go to resource |
