Fontana is a rare example of a woman Old Master, one of only a few who managed to attain career success on her own and was the first woman elected to the Academy of Saint Luke in Rome. This painting is one of the most ambitious from her early career.

Running from March 17 to July 19, 2026, Renoir and Love will be one of the top special exhibitions of the year in Paris.
