Description
Realism Lady Figures, Painting Size: 48 X 72- Frame Size:87"x 63"This is a Museum Painting on Canvas, With Fabulous Wood Frame This gorgeous painting illustrates a story from Roderick, the last king of the Spanish Visigoths before the arrival of Islamic rule, more commonly known as the Moors, in Iberia. According to the legend, Roderick chooses Florinda (center-left draped in green) from his bevy of fair maidens, which instigates her father to incite the Muslims to attack and conquer Roderick and the Visigoths. Winterhalter's flair for sumptuous drapery and soft flesh is combined with an elegant composition that uses alternating figures to heighten visual interest. Winterhalter may not have the naturalism of Bouguereau, but the Classicism here is graceful and eloquent. Winterhalter makes clear of the fact that this is fantasy and even the light coming from above is bathing them in an imaginary sensuality. The faces of all the women themselves seem to be all alike, suggesting he may have used the same model for each of these figures.
