September Morn, c. 1912 - A Controversial Masterpiece that Pushed Boundaries
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the renowned painting "September Morn" by French artist Paul Chabas. Created in 1912, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 163.8x216.5 cm and is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The painting caused quite a stir when it was first unveiled, becoming a "cause célèbre" due to its perceived immorality. In 1913, the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice declared it scandalous and immoral, adding fuel to the controversy surrounding this artwork. Featuring a young nude woman standing serenely amidst nature's beauty, Chabas skillfully captures both innocence and sensuality in his portrayal. The idyllic landscape serves as a backdrop for this bather immersed in water, evoking feelings of tranquility and harmony with nature. Despite its initial notoriety, "September Morn" has since become an iconic symbol of artistic freedom and expression. Its timeless appeal lies in its ability to challenge societal norms while celebrating the human form within natural surroundings. This print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate every intricate detail of Chabas' work - from the delicate brushstrokes that bring life to his subject's figure to the vibrant colors that breathe life into her surroundings. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece through time's lens, let us reflect on
