The Salon picture was purchased by Napoleon III for his personal collection. In 1875, New Yorker John Wolfe commissioned the present, slightly smaller, replica from Cabanel. The composition embodies ideals of academic art: mythological subject, graceful modeling, silky brushwork, and perfected form. This style was perennially popular with collectors, even as it was challenged by artists seeking a more personal interpretation of truth to nature, such as Courbet.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/435831\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - The Birth of Venus\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alexandre Cabanel","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49887063539955,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (41 3\/4\" x 71 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887063572723,"sku":null,"price":4351.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (13 5\/8\" x 23 1\/2\")","offer_id":49887063605491,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (16 3\/4\" x 28 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887063638259,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (20 1\/2\" x 35 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887063671027,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (26 3\/8\" x 45 1\/2\")","offer_id":49887063703795,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (31 5\/8\" x 54 5\/8\")","offer_id":49887063736563,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (37 3\/8\" x 64 1\/2\")","offer_id":49887063769331,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (44 3\/4\" x 77 1\/4\")","offer_id":49887063802099,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/TheBirthofVenus.jpg?v=1783875354","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/the-birth-of-venus","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
