Jules Bastien-Lepage was born 1 November 1848, died 10 December 1884, he was a French painter closely associated with the beginning of naturalism, an artistic style that emerged from the later phase of the Realist movement.

His most famous work is his landscape-style portrait of Joan of Arc which currently resides at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City.

After exhibiting works in the Salons of 1870 and 1872, which attracted no attention, in 1874 his 'Portrait of my Grandfather' garnered critical acclaim and received a third class medal. He also showed Song of Spring, an academically oriented study of rural life, representing a peasant girl sitting on a knoll above a village, surrounded by wood nymphs. The last picture, now in the Musée d'Orsay, was widely praised by critics and the public alike. It secured his status as one of the first painters in the Naturalist school.
