The Return of Spring (French: Le Printemps) is a painting by William-Adolphe Bouguereau created in 1886. It is among the more well-known of his works. It is currently in the collection of the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha, Nebraska, and was acquired in 1951 as the gift of Francis T. B. Martin. The painting was brought to Omaha shortly after it was completed by George W. Lininger.[1] Lininger was an art collector and private gallery owner who routinely opened his gallery to the public for no charge.[1]

The painting was physically attacked twice - in 1890 and in 1976. Both times, damages were minimal. The attackers were offended by the painting's overtly sensual nudity.

A replica of the painting appeared in the ballroom scene at the Beaufort home in the 1993 film, The Age of Innocence (though the film takes place in the 1870s, years before the painting was created).

[it] La Primavera (Bouguereau)

La Primavera (in francese Le Printemps ), conosciuto anche come Il ritorno della primavera, è un dipinto di William-Adolphe Bouguereau del 1886. L'opera è la rappresentazione di una ninfa all'inizio della primavera. Attualmente si trova in mostra presso il Museo d'Arte Joslyn a Omaha, Nebraska. Nel 1890 e nel 1976 il dipinto fu vittima di tentativi di vandalismo da parte di alcune persone che ritenevano offensiva la nudità apertamente sensuale dell'opera: quando è stato esposto a Omaha nel 1890 ha finito per essere vandalizzato da un pastore della chiesa presbiteriana, che gli lanciò contro una sedia e procurando in tal modo un ampio strappo alla tela: la giustificazione dell'atto compiuto fu che l'opera risvegliò in lui pensieri e desideri impuri[1].
