Studio on Rue Furstenberg

Studio on Rue Furstenberg is an 1866 painting by Frédéric Bazille of the studio he was sharing with Claude Monet at 6 Place de Furstenburg in the 6th arrondissement of Paris in January 1866. Monet had painted his Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe in the same studio in 1865. One floor down in the same building was the studio used by Eugène Delacroix between 1857 and his death to be close to the église Saint-Sulpice, where he was painting a chapel – that studio was later used by Diogène Maillart, Delacroix's student, whilst working to win the first prize for painting in 1864. The whole building is now the Musée national Eugène-Delacroix.
