Village Love
Village Love or The Village Lovers is an 1882 painting by Jules Bastien-Lepage. It was acquired in 1885 by Sergei Tretyakov at the posthumous sale of the artist's works at Georges Petit's gallery. The Musée du Luxembourg had initially been interested in the work, but instead chose Haymaking. It later entered the State Museum of New Western Art and in 1948 the Pushkin Museum, where it still hangs.
