Description: 1880 The Storm by Pierre Auguste Cot Framed & Lighted Giclee Painting. When Cot exhibited this painting at the Salon of 1880, critics speculated about the source of the subject. Some proposed the French novelPaul and Virginieby Bernardin de Saint-Pierre (17371814), in which the teenage protagonists run for shelter in a rainstorm, using the heroines overskirt as an impromptu umbrella; others suggested the romanceDaphnis and Chloeby the ancient Greek writer Longus. New York collector and Metropolitan Museum benefactor Catharine Lorillard Wolfe commissioned the work under the guidance of her cousin John Wolfe, one of Cot's principal patrons. Like the artists earlierSpringtime(2012.575), it was immensely popular and extensively reproduced.
