EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the 19th century and immersed in the world of French artist Louis Leopold Boilly. The painting titled "The private bird also says the couple and the bird flies" is a mesmerizing depiction of human emotions and relationships. At first glance, we see a couple standing together, their gazes locked in an intimate moment. Boilly's masterful brushstrokes bring out every detail of their expressions - love, desire, and perhaps even a hint of secrecy. But what truly captures our attention is the presence of a bird perched on the woman's hand. This seemingly ordinary creature takes on symbolic significance as it becomes a witness to their private affair. It serves as a metaphor for infidelity, suggesting that secrets can never truly be contained or hidden away. As the title suggests, even birds have voices that carry stories beyond closed doors. Boilly's choice to include this element adds depth and complexity to his portrayal of human nature. Through his artistry, he explores themes such as sexuality, love, and betrayal within bourgeois society. As we admire this remarkable piece from Boilly's oeuvre housed at Louvre Museum in Paris today, let us reflect on how art has always been an avenue for artists like him to express profound truths about our existence – both beautiful and unsettling alike.
