A cartoon by J. F. Griswold that appeared in the New York Evening Sun parodies this painting by using trapezoids and squares to represent the heads of people fighting in the underground subway. Currently at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, this painting was rejected from the 1912 Salon des Independants, since Albert Gleizes and Jean Metzinger felt that its title subject should be shown reclining. This painting was inspired by the photography of Etienne-Jules Marey, who himself inspired (*) Eadward Muybridge to make a work that depicts this work's title action. American Art News offered a ten dollar reward to the first reader who could actually point out the title figure of this painting. The Armory Show exhibited this painting, which Julian Street said depicted an "explosion in a shingle factory." For 10 points, name this painting of a naked woman by Marcel Duchamp.
