<p>Gustave Courbet (1819 - 1877) was a renowned French artist during the 19th century Realist movement. He was dedicated to presenting his independent style in art as he steered clear of the traditional art techniques during his time. In fact, his unique styles became a source of inspiration among the cubists and impressionists.</p>
<p>This nude is painted in an unflinchingly naturalistic style and is devoid of the trappings of academic allegory to which the painting's title alludes. Courbet is thought to have intended it as a response to Ingres's own?La Source?(1856, Musee d'Orsay, Paris), which was exhibited at the Galerie Martinet, Paris, in 1861. The picture by Ingres depicts an idealized nude holding a jar from which water pours, an allusion to a spring or river source, and symbolizing poetic inspiration. </p>
