Biombo con figuras danzantes — Historia y Análisis

Esta pantalla tiene un origen interesante. Cuando Maris la vio en una galería de arte en París, supo de inmediato cómo la reformaría. Cortó la tela original y estiró un nuevo lienzo sobre los marcos.

Luego pintó ninfas sobre este nuevo soporte. El comerciante de arte Cottier vendió posteriormente las ninfas como cuatro pinturas independientes. En 1914, el coleccionista canadiense William van Horne reunió estos paneles para formar una pantalla.
