Catel, who studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, would also have been familiar with the related allegory of the Ages of Man, the subject of a major Salon painting by François Gérard (1808; Musée Condé, Chantilly). The present work shares the Italian setting of Gérard’s but updates its antique dress by depicting a contemporary peasant family.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/438629\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - First Steps\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Franz Ludwig Catel","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":44302824177777,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (18 3\/4\" x 14 3\/4\")","offer_id":44302824210545,"sku":null,"price":608.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (20 1\/8\" x 15 7\/8\")","offer_id":44302824243313,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (24 3\/4\" x 19 1\/2\")","offer_id":44302824276081,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (30 1\/4\" x 23 7\/8\")","offer_id":44302824308849,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (39\" x 30 3\/4\")","offer_id":44302824341617,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (46 7\/8\" x 37\")","offer_id":44302824374385,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (55 1\/4\" x 43 5\/8\")","offer_id":44302824407153,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (66 1\/4\" x 52 1\/4\")","offer_id":44302824439921,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/3934\/0401\/files\/FirstSteps.jpg?v=1787547416","url":"https:\/\/mastermuseumreplicas.com\/products\/first-steps","provider":"Master Museum Replicas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
