    I believe this was Raphael. He also painted The Tempest which is one of my most favorite paintings ever. It's also at the Met. I used to sit and contemplate the Tempest for many hours. The painting is enormous.

    Thank you!

    I've tried looking for a print by searching for paintings by Raphael, but I can't seem to find it :(

    I fell out of bed on my head today. The painting I was referring to was called "The Storm" by Pierre-Auguste Cot, a French painter painted in 1880.

    Pierre-Auguste Cot: Springtime Poster - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - Met Museum Store

    It's called Springtime by Pierre-Auguste Cot. Here's the link to buy the poster.

    I used to live at the Met on the weekends when I lived in NYC for 7 years.

    Now you can enjoy Springtime at home. Also look at The Storm and you can see how similar the style is in both pictures.
