alb3676975 Mademoiselle V. in the Costume of an Espada. Artist: Édouard Manet (French, Paris 1832-1883 Paris). Dimensions: 65 x 50 1/4 in. (165.1 x 127.6 cm). Date: 1862.Manet depicted model Victorine Meurent (1844-1928) in the guise of a male espada, or matador, borrowing her pose from a Renaissance print. Victorine's shoes are unsuitable for bullfighting, and the pink cape that she flourishes is the wrong hue, but she carries off her role with panache. The backdrop reproduces a scene from Goya's Tauromaquia series, celebrating the feats of bullfighters. When this painting was exhibited at the infamous Salon des Refusés of 1863, a commentator noted, "Manet loves Spain, and his favorite master seems to be Goya, whose vivid and contrasting hues, whose free and fiery touch he imitates.".

The following year, he and his family moved into their new summer home, Shinnecock Hall, which had been designed and built by the well-known firm of McKim, Mead and White. Chase taught at the beach resort until 1902, conducting open-air classes for as many as a hundred students each summer. This work is characteristic of the outdoor scenes that Chase painted during the 1890s on Long Island beaches. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3620232 Seasons and Elements (Spring) (set of four). Culture: French, Paris. Designer: Border probably designed by Jean Lemoyen le Lorrain (1637/38-1709); Possibly after a design by Charles Le Brun (French, Paris 1619-1690 Paris). Dimensions: L. 164 x W. 108 inches (416.6 x 274.3 cm). Patron: Commissioned for Marquise de Montespan (1641-1707). Date: ca. 1683.Designed and embroidered probably in the convent of Saint-Joseph-de-la-Providence for the Marquise de Montespan (1641-1707), these hanging (46.43.1-.4) may have adorned the king's apartment at the château de Rambouillet. The embroidery representing Air shows the figure of Louis XIV. The other three hangings depict three of the six children of the king and Madame de Montespan, symbolizing Spring, Summer, and Fire. The set almost certainly included Autumn and Winter, as well as water; Madame de Montespan herself was perhaps depicted as Juno, representing Earth.

alb3629714 Wolf and Fox Hunt. Artist: Peter Paul Rubens (Flemish, Siegen 1577-1640 Antwerp) and Workshop. Dimensions: 96 5/8 x 148 1/8 in. (245.4 x 376.2 cm). Date: ca. 1616.With characteristic business acumen, Rubens created a market for a new art form: very large hunting scenes painted on canvas, of which this one is the first. The few earlier examples were either models for or copies after tapestries, but Rubens's large "hunts" of about 1616-21 were made as replacements for that very expensive medium. This canvas, originally more symmetrical in design, was trimmed at the top and left side because (according to a client in 1616) "none but great Princes have houses fitt to hange it up in." Rubens painted the picture with the help of assistants but declared that the wolves were his own work. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
