==History==
''Chloé'' made its first debut in the Paris Salon in 1875 with great success. With that success, it and Lefebvre won the Gold Medal of Honour in 1872. It was subsequently displayed in art exhibitions such as the French Gallery at the Sydney International Exhibition in 1879 and the Melbourne International Exhibition in 1880.
''Chloé'' was then purchased by Dr. Thomas Fitzgerald of Lonsdale Street, Melbourne, for 850 guineas.〔 Controversy arose when the painting was to be exhibited on Sundays. The Presbyterian Assembly found the painting to be too scandalous to show on Sundays, so it had to eventually be taken down from galleries.〔"Chloe." Young and Jackson. ALH Group, n.d. Web. 18 March 2014 〕 Upon Fitzgerald's death in 1908, the painting was auctioned off to Norman Figsby Young.〔 Henry Young and Thomas Jackson bought ''Chloé'' in 1908 from Norman Figsby Young and placed the painting in the bar of their hotel.〔
