James Tissot - Young Ladies looking at Japanese Objects


[Jeunes Femmes Regardant des Objets Japonais]
1869
oil on canvas
Cincinnati
This seems to have been painted in the artist's house and shows his own collection of Japanese objects (very fashionable at the time). He was an important collector of Japanese objects and painted several pictures featuring them.
