[H2]About the Artist: Gustave Courbet[/H2] Gustave Courbet, born on June 10, 1819, was a French painter who led the Realism movement in 19th-century French painting. He rejected academic convention and Romanticism, focusing instead on depicting unidealized peasants and workers on a grand scale traditionally reserved for religious or historical subjects. His innovative approach set an example for later artists, including the Impressionists and Cubists.

This captivating painting was initially exhibited at the Salon of 1866, following Courbet's previous submission in 1864 being rejected due to indecency.
