Spring Morning c. 1875

James Tissot's "Spring Morning" (c. 1875) depicts a stylishly dressed woman strolling through a lush garden. She wears a striped dress and a wide-brimmed hat, holding a parasol to shield her from the sun. The scene is characterized by a sense of tranquility and elegance, capturing the beauty and leisure of a spring day in the late 19th century. Tissot's meticulous detail in portraying the woman's attire, the vibrant floral beds, and the verdant foliage adds a sense of realism to the composition. This oil painting captures the essence of Parisian social life, a popular subject for Tissot's work.
