Then in 1866 came another full length nude, La Femme au perroquet (Metropolitan Museum of Art), encountered this time from an unconventional angle, her tresses falling like water towards the viewer, and her features composed in mysterious ecstasy; as well as the scandalous, overtly lesbian Le Sommeil (Musée du Petit Palais); and, famously, the ultimately difficult painting - for the 19th century: L’Origine du monde, a virtuoso depiction of the female body, focusing on her genitalia and pubic hair, inspired by banned photographs for the stereoscope taken by Auguste Belloc at the beginning of that decade ( op.
