Notes
English: This painting was commissioned from the artist in 1880 by Catharine Lorillard Wolfe, under the guidance of her cousin, John Wolfe, one of Cot's principal patrons. When it was exhibited in the Salon that year, critics speculated about the source of the subject. Some suggested the Greek romance Daphnis and Chloe by Longus (ca. 200 A.D.), and others the romantic tale Paul et Virginie by Bernardin de Saint-Pierre (1737–1814).
