Village Love (1882), by Jules Bastien-Lepage
Village Love or The Village Lovers (French - L'Amour au village) is an 1882 painting by Jules Bastien-Lepage. It was acquired in 1885 by Sergei Tretyakov at the posthumous sale of the artist's works at Georges Petit's gallery.[1][2] The Musée du Luxembourg had initially been interested in the work, but instead chose Haymaking (later transferred to the Louvre then to the Musée d'Orsay[3][4]). It later entered the State Museum of New Western Art and in 1948 the Pushkin Museum, where it still hangs.[5]
