PAINTING DESCRIPTION
In 1895, Gérôme had painted a similar work, (The nurturer Truth lies in a well, having been killed by liars and actors).
It has been suggested that both paintings (like a similar, later work by Édouard Debat-Ponsan) were a comment on the Dreyfus affair. It has also been suggested that the painting is an expression of Gérôme’s hostility towards the Impressionist movement, to which he was violently opposed.
However, in a preface that Gérôme wrote for Émile Bayard’s Le Nu Esthétique, he refers to the influence photography had had upon painting: “Photography is an art. It forces artists to discard their old routine and forget their old formulas. It has opened our eyes and forced us to see that which previously we have not seen
a great and inexpressible service for Art. It is thanks to photography that Truth has finally come out of her well. She will never go back.
