European school (XIX) - Penélope

Title: Classical Historical/Religious Portrait ㅤ School: European School (19th century) ㅤ Style: Academicism classicist ㅤ Technique: Oil on canvas ㅤ Condition: Condition corresponding to its age. It presents restorations. ㅤ Circle and artistic influence: The work is framed within the European academic tradition of the 19th century and in the revival of classical models promoted by the academies. The idealization of the face, the softness of the modeling and the treatment of the draperies show echoes of Neoclassicism and Romantic historical portrait. ㅤ Portrait of a female bust represented in three-quarters, with the face illuminated against a dark and neutral background. The young woman directs her gaze sideways and is wrapped in an attire of soft folds and grayish tones. The modeling of the face and the idealized expression give the figure a solemn character, possibly linked to a historical, allegorical or religious representation. ㅤ Wide dark wooden frame, with straight lines and a sober finish, suitable to the classical character of the portrait. ㅤ Observations: ㅤ The work, due to its age, presents restorations. ㅤ The work may present damage during transport although proper packaging is done.
