notes
A millionairess from Pittsburgh, Mrs. Kate Moore (1846 -1917) became one of the leading figures in Paris high society especially among the expatiate Americans. She lavishly entertained.

1884
Oil on canvas
208.6 x 109.9 cm (82 1/8 x 43 1/4 in.)

Metropolitan Museum of Art

New York, NY

notes
When Madame X was shown at the Salon of 1884 it became instantly a salacious painting and a scandal in French society as a result of its sexual suggestiveness of her pose and the pail pasty color of her skin. The "X" of Madame X was actually Madame Gautreau (1859-1915) who’s  reputation was apparently destroyed and John left France shortly to...

notes

Madame Pierre Gauteau (Study) ...
