Young Woman Overtaken by a Storm (Une Jeune Femme s'étant Avancée dans la Campagne se Trouve Surprise par l'orage) Chevalier Féréol de Bonnemaison (French, ca. 1770-1827). Young Woman Overtaken by a Storm (Une Jeune Femme s'étant Avancée dans la Campagne se Trouve Surprise par l'orage), 1799. Oil on canvas, 39 3/8 × 31 11/16 in., 67 lb. (100 × cm, ). France in the wake of the Revolution was a place of terror. Political, social, and economic instability undermined faith in the new government, leaving citizens with a sense of helplessness. Artists often conveyed this collective fear of the unknown in paintings of the natural world. Here, for example, the forces of nature overpower a young woman, who stands defenseless in a storm.
