Sure three women together doesn't always refer to the Three Graces. But if they are in a certain pose and dressed in a classical style there can be no discussion.
The term "Three Graces" refers to three Greek goddesses of charm, beauty, and creativity. Or sometimes to Hera, Athena and Aphrodite. In European art they are one of the oldest topics.
Because it was a good excuse to paint three naked women the examples may be uncountable. So I want to present only two nice and typical ones.
This is by Lucas Cranach the Elder (1472–1553) a German Renaissance painter and from about 1535.
The second is by Charles-André van Loo (1705–1765) a French Rococo painter and from about 1763.
And the last one is by Annie Leibovitz and was the cover of Vanity Fair in April 2008.
In this case Leibovitz didn't make a quotation of a special painting, its more her own interpretation of the old art topic.
Annie Leibovitz is well known for her "Disney Dream Portrait Series" where different stars are posing as Disney fantasy heroines. Here it’s Jessica Biel as Pocahontas with the title "Where Dreams Run Free".
To me it’s not only a simple quotation of the Disney movie, it matches much more the pretension of Leibovitz to tell stories, to be narrative. There’s not only a model running trough the woods, it’s a whole legend, which is told.
But this photo is a quotation of a pin-up by the painter Rolf Armstrong (1889-1960). It dates from 1945 and was called "The Winning Combination". So it was a celebration of the end of the Second World War.
Despite I got no special paintings as model for this images, I find them very typical in the style of 19th century academic painting.
This is by Lucas Cranach the Elder (1472–1553) a German Renaissance painter and from about 1535.
The second is by Charles-André van Loo (1705–1765) a French Rococo painter and from about 1763.
