Springtime was painted by Cot in 1873. The painting was first exhibited at the 1873 Paris salon, where it was well received; the work would go on to become Cot's most successful work of art, and was often copied in other mediums. In terms of the painting itself, Cot's work depicts a young couple locked in an embrace on a swing amid a forest or garden. The two are wearing classical garb, and are seemingly enthralled by each other, described by one source as "drunken with first love".
You will never embrace a beautiful young foid as you swing carelessly in the forest. You will never have a foid look at you with love in her eyes. All because you were born wrong.
And before the agecucks comment, this painting is held the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it is presented for the public to see.
