This late work was painted at Saint-Paul Asylum in Saint-Rémy, inspired by an 1872 engraving by Gustave Doré of the exercise yard (le bagne) at Newgate Prison published in the book London: A Pilgrimage.
Mardi Gras
Paul Cézanne · 1888
Pierrot and Harlequin or Mardi Gras is an 1888–1890 oil on canvas painting by Paul Cézanne, now in the Pushkin Museum in Moscow. As the title suggests, it shows the commedia dell'arte characters Pierrot and Harlequin.
Portrait of the actress Jeanne Samary
Pierre-Auguste Renoir · 1877
Portrait of Jeanne Samary is an oil on canvas painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, depicting the actress Jeanne Samary, from 1878. It is held in the Hermitage Museum, in Saint Petersburg. It was exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1879 and intended to make good on the critical failure of his previous portrait of her, but it made little impression on the critics. It was seized by the Soviet state after the October Revolution as part of the seizure of Ivan Morozov's art collection.
