OIL PAINTING: Le Captif [The Prisoner], 1891
In the thought process between the drawing and the painting, Bouguereau wanted to further idealize this figure, he takes the figure of a girl possibly in her early adolescence back into childhood, a time that was considered in the 19th century, as well as today, as a time of uncomplicated innocence, that Bouguereau was striving to depict in all his oil paintings.
