''Interior'' ((フランス語:Intérieur)), also known as ''The Rape'' ((フランス語:Le Viol)), is an oil painting on canvas by Edgar Degas (1834–1917), painted in 1868–1869. Described as "the most puzzling of Degas's major works",〔Reff 1976, p. 200.〕 it depicts a tense confrontation by lamplight between a man and a partially undressed woman. The theatrical character of the scene has led art historians to seek a literary source for the composition, but none of the sources proposed has met with universal acceptance. Even the painting's title is uncertain; acquaintances of the artist referred to it either as ''Le Viol'' or ''Intérieur'', and it was under the latter title that Degas exhibited it for the first time in 1905.〔 The painting is housed in the Philadelphia Museum of Art.〔(Object record ) in the Philadelphia Museum of Art's online collection.〕 ==Background== Degas painted ''Interior'' at a time when his growing commitment to Realism had led him away from his earlier preoccupation with historical subjects such as ''Sémiramis Building Babylon'' (1860–62), ''Young Spartans Exercising'' (ca.1860), and the painting which marked his Salon debut, ''Scene of War in the Middle Ages'' (1865). His new direction was apparent by the time he exhibited ''Steeplechase—The Fallen Jockey'' in the Salon of 1866. Degas probably intended to submit ''Interior'' for exhibition in the Salon of 1869,〔Thomson p. 68.〕 but it was not shown publicly until June 1905, when it was displayed at Galerie Durand-Ruel in Paris.〔Krämer 2007.〕 Degas referred to the work in 1897 as "mon tableau de genre" ("my genre painting"), which suggests that he considered the painting anomalous among his works.〔
