Jean-Jacques Henner (1829 – 1905)

Jean-Jacques Henner (1829-1905): French painter celebrated for luminous nudes, religious scenes & portraits. Master of sfumato and chiaroscuro, influencing generations of artists.

According to the artist"s diary, this painting depicts a figure from Greek mythology, Echo. It was commissioned by Catherine Lorillard Wolfe, a great patron of contemporary French painting and of The Met, and became the first work by Henner to enter an American museum. Like the present canvas, the two other versions of this composition were also acquired by female collectors. One is now in the Musée national Jean-Jacques Henner, Paris; the other has not been located.
