Sleep, 1866
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Gustave Courbet is a captivating oil painting that captures the essence of intimacy and vulnerability. This masterpiece, measuring 135x200 cm, can be found in the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee du Petit-Palais in France. The artwork portrays two entwined female figures peacefully asleep. The artist's attention to detail beautifully showcases their nudity and sensuality while maintaining an air of innocence. Courbet's brushstrokes skillfully depict the softness of their skin and the delicate curves of their bodies. This piece challenges societal norms with its depiction of lesbian love during a time when such expressions were considered taboo. It celebrates femininity and explores themes of desire and connection between women. The warm colors used in this painting evoke a sense of tranquility, inviting viewers to contemplate the beauty found within human relationships. The composition draws our gaze towards these sleeping figures as they lie on a bed adorned with elegant furnishings.
