Bouguereau critics find little more in that painting than a bunch of pretty girls, while in fact the painting is a lot more complex than that aesthetically, and thematically.

Also, its one of Bouguereau’s less effective paintings, because the composition is too staged. But I understand why you used it, because you want the easiest foil as possible.

Personally, I can hardly imagine a more damning attempt at a defense. Schama shows not the least sign of visual sensitivity. Which is something the French Academic painters of the 19th century all learned, as a matter of course, if they didn’t possess it naturally.
