A FAVOURITE POET<\/strong><\/p>\n

Steel engraving made by Leopold L\u00f6wenstam<\/strong><\/a> in 1889<\/strong> after the painting (Opus CCXC) by Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema<\/strong><\/a>. Signed in pencil by both Alma-Tadema and L\u00f6wenstam. Coloured by a later hand. Size: 34.5 \u00d7 46.5 cm.<\/p>\n

Beautiful women are portrayed in the luxury of their leisurely lifestyle.<\/p>\n

A passage is being read aloud from a papyrus scroll. The blushing cheeks and dreamy gaze of the listening girl suggest that her thoughts have drifted to a love elegy.<\/p>\n

The wall in the background is adorned with bronze reliefs that serve as revolving window panels; they depict the Muses and emphasize the literary context. On the first panel, only the lower legs of a standing figure are visible \u2014 they could belong to Apollo<\/a>. The presence of this half-hidden figure evokes the erotic daydream in which the female listener is completely absorbed.<\/p>\n

The open window reveals a typically Mediterranean sea view. A languid atmosphere prevails. Sunlight pours into the room, illuminating the marble and accentuating the body of the seated figure, visible through the thin fabric of her dress.<\/p>\n

Price: SOLD<\/p>\n
