Studio on Rue Furstenberg is an 1866 painting by Frédéric Bazille of the studio he was sharing with Claude Monet at 6 Place de Furstenburg in the 6th arrondissement of Paris in January 1866. Monet had painted his Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe in the same studio in 1865. One floor down in the same building was the studio used by Eugène Delacroix between 1857 and his death in 1863. Delacroix had moved to Rue Fursenberg to be close to the Église Saint-Sulpice, where he was painting a chapel.[1] That studio was later used by Diogène Maillart, Delacroix's student, whilst working to win the first prize for painting in 1864. The whole building is now the Musée national Eugène-Delacroix.
The painting is now in the Musée Fabre in Montpellier.
Several paintings on the wall resemble works by artists known to Bazille: Portrait of Claude Monet (1865) by Gilbert Alexandre de Séverac (on the left above the small table);[2] The Beach at Honfleur (1864) by Claude Monet (on the same wall, to the right); Road by Saint-Siméon Farm (1864) by Claude Monet (to the right of the door on the back wall).[3]
