Legendarily,the inspiration for this painting's composition came from watching peasants and Âsherman on the beach in Collioureperform the "sardana." A second version of this painting was commissioned as a ceiling mural above the three window archesin the room containing Seurat's The Models at the Barnes Foundation. The artist created a companion piece to this painting,in which a standing nude man without genitals plays a tiny golden violin alongside three nude people sitting on a greenhill. It was originally commissioned as a mural for the grand staircase of the Trubetskoy Palace by Russian industrialist SergeyShchukin, along with that companion piece Music. The people in this painting appear in the background of the artist's earliercanvas The Joy of Life. For 10 points, name this 1910 Matisse painting, where Âfive nude people join hands and perform the titlerhythmic activity.
