Details, like the turquoise arbour and the flower pot, suggest this is the garden at 100 Rue du Bac, Paris, but it is unlikely the model posed outside. Designs for the stand are seen in r. and v.: Designs for a flower stand [M.1399], and a similar bowl is seen in the garden, in lithographs such as La Belle Jardinière c101.
