Inspired by James Thomson's poem Summer (1727), it is at once chaste and erotic, a combination that had great appeal for contemporary Victorian audiences. Sully depicts the modest Musidora at the moment her suitor, Damon, discovers her bathing in the forest. His gentlemanly conduct so impresses her that she pledges her love for him at once. The subject was painted by many artists of the day, but Sully's interpretation, in which the unwitting viewer plays the role of Damon, is compellingly unique.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/12699\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - Musidora\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thomas Sully","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49888229490931,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (28 1\/8\" x 22 1\/2\")","offer_id":49888229523699,"sku":null,"price":1139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (20\" x 16\")","offer_id":49888229556467,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (24 1\/2\" x 19 5\/8\")","offer_id":49888229589235,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (30\" x 24\")","offer_id":49888229622003,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (38 3\/4\" x 31\")","offer_id":49888229654771,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (46 1\/2\" x 37 1\/4\")","offer_id":49888229687539,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (54 3\/4\" x 43 3\/4\")","offer_id":49888229720307,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (65 3\/4\" x 52 5\/8\")","offer_id":49888229753075,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/Musidora.jpg?v=1789759759","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/musidora","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
