Claude Monet and William Merritt Chase - Japanese Costumes

Japanese decoration, kimonos and printings were usual in the late nineteenth-century in Europe and America and it was a cult that originated the word Japanism.
The right Monet "Madame Monet in Japanese Costume", 1876, is quite unique and surprising. It's at Bostom Museum. Large version here.
