Giuseppe Cozzi (c.1799–1878)
Susanne au Bain (after Bartolomeo Schedoni) c.1850
Etching
72.1.111
This is a story of protest: Susanna refuses, even as these men threaten to call her an adulteress, a crime punishable by death. Her body twists towards the viewer as she struggles against the elders’ assault. But did the artist choose this scene to highlight Susanna’s bravery or her nudity? (This is Not Ideal, Fall 2018)
