This painting was originally displayed facing a depiction of a female model in it costumed as a male matador. Rolf Laessoe ("lasso") argued that this painting is divided between a lozenge-shaped "painting-within-a-painting" and a larger "studio space," bridged by a "painter" wearing a hat incongruous with the outdoor setting. The double meaning of the word "grenouille" (grun-WHEEL) is suggested by a  gure in the bottom le t of this painting, whose upper half depicts a bull nch  lying at the viewer. The artist of this painting deliberately broke the rules of perspective by painting a chemise-wearing woman in its background large enough to be nine feet tall. This painting adapts a cane-carrying man's recumbent pose from that of a river god in Marcantonio Raimondi's Judgement of Paris. This painting probably depicts the artist's brother-in-law, Ferdinand Leenho f (LEYN-ho f), with his brother Eugene and his model Victorine Meurent (myoo-RAHN). For 10 points, name this Edouard Manet painting of two clothed men having a picnic with a naked woman.
