“L’Origine got me hooked—what a story! Milgrom brings the reader right along on her adventures as a copyist of one of the most well-known paintings in all the world.” —Harriet Welty Rochefort, author of French Fried, French Toast, Joie de Vivre, and Final Transgression

The riveting odyssey of one of the world’s most scandalous works of art.

In 1866, maverick French artist Gustave Courbet painted one of the most iconic images in the history of art: a sexually explicit portrait of a woman’s exposed genitals. Audaciously titled L’Origine du monde (The Origin of the World), the scandalous painting was kept hidden for a century and a half. Today, it hangs in the world-renowned Orsay Museum in Paris, viewed by millions of visitors a year.

As the first artist authorized by the Orsay Museum to re-create Courbet’s The Origin of the World, author Lilianne Milgrom was thrust into the painting’s intimate orbit, spending six weeks replicating every fold, crevice, and pubic hair. The experience inspired her to share her story and the painting’s riveting clandestine history with readers beyond the confines of the art world.

L’Origine is an entertaining and superbly researched work of historical fiction that traces the true story of the painting’s unlikely tale of survival, replete with French revolutionaries, Turkish pashas, and nefarious Nazi captains. But L’Origine is more than a riveting romp

Great quality, better than a rental.
Size: 4X-Large, Color: Navy Blue, Size: 4X-Large, Color: Navy Blue
This suit was a pleasant surprise in quality! Just note, sizing isn’t perfect since it’s a set, so the pants were really long and the waist slightly bigger than my husband’s actual size, as we had to fit for his chest and shoulders. However, we were able to hem the pants quite easily and he just wore a belt which worked perfectly. For the price and quality you receive, well worth it. We ended up using a different tie than given so it would match my dress. Worth every cent even if worn once since rentals are way more expense. This held up for a full 8hrs of schmoozing and dancing and is still in great shape.
