Couverture d'une édition allemande, avec

un tableau d'Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun,

représentant sa fille en baigneuse

Here, Vigée Le Brun posed the twelve-year-

old Julie as a bather. She was inspired by

Porporati’s print after Santerre’s painting of

a biblical story according to which Susanna,

a virtuous young woman, was lusted after by

two elders who hid themselves in her

garden while she was bathing.

The artist demonstrates her command of

academic language, expressing the

vulnerability of a victim frightened at the

approach of unseen intruders.
