PIERRE-AUGUSTE COT IS BEST KNOWN FOR HIS ALLEGORICAL PAINTINGS AND FOR HIS PORTRAITS OF PARISIAN ARISTOCRATS. HE BEGAN HIS STUDIES AT THE ECOLE DES BEAUX ARTS IN TOULOUSE AND LATER STUDIED WITH BOUGUEREAU, CABANEL AND COGNIET. THE INFLUENCE OF BOUGUEREAU IS VERY CLEAR IN THE PRESENT PICTURE, WHICH IS REMINISCENT OF HIS SALON ENTRY OF 1864, BAIGNEUSE (SEE THE CATALOGUE OF THE EXHIBITION WILLIAM BOUGUEREAU 1825-1905, PARIS, MONTREAL AND HARTFORD, FEBR. 1984-JAN. 1985, P. 118).
