This work was first exhibited by Carrier-Belleuse at the Salon of 1859 and was immediately popular with critics and the public alike. Its composition was probably the first of the sculptor's works to adopt the Renaissance style and show the influence of the Fontainbleau School. Carrier-Belleuse's work during this period was characterised by his attention to detail, in this instance, the fine chiselling of the hair, jewellery and plumage of the bird.
