PIERRE-AUGUSTE RENOIR. Sleeping Girl, 1880. Creator: Pierre-Auguste Renoir.

PIERRE-AUGUSTE RENOIR. Sleeping Girl, 1880. A young woman dozes in a chair, her striped stockings and plain skirt suggesting her humble background. The undergarment slipping off her shoulder attracts our gaze, while giving the impression that she is unaware of being observed. The model is thought to have been a resident of Montmartre known for her colorful slang and erratic lifestyle. The image’s suggestive nature is underscored by the presence of the equally sleepy cat resting in her lap.
