A feira de cavalos

1852–55
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 812
O mercado de cavalos de Paris era realizado no Boulevard de l’Hôpital, perto do hospital Salpêtrière, visível ao fundo à esquerda. Durante um ano e meio, Bonheur frequentou o mercado duas vezes por semana para fazer desenhos, vestida como um homem para não chamar atenção. A pintura foi iniciada em 1852 e exibida no Salão de Paris de 1853, sendo revisada mais tarde. Desde a sua chegada no Metropolitan em 1887, esta tela excepcionalmente vibrante foi um dos quadros mais populares e queridos pelo público.
