EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Jean Bernard Restout's masterpiece, "Sleep". Painted in 1771, this oil on canvas artwork now resides at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. In this piece, Restout skillfully transforms a simple nude studio study into Morpheus, the god of sleep. The painting showcases a man in a peaceful slumber amidst an ethereal backdrop. With wings gracefully sprouting from his back and delicate flowers adorning his surroundings, Morpheus exudes tranquility and serenity. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he incorporates feathers and peonies to enhance the dreamlike atmosphere. Resting comfortably on a bed of clouds, Morpheus personifies Hypnos himself – the Greek deity responsible for dreams. Through this mesmerizing portrayal, Restout invites viewers to delve into their own subconscious realms and explore the mysteries that unfold during sleep. The nudity depicted in this artwork serves not only as an artistic choice but also symbolizes vulnerability and purity. By shedding societal constraints associated with clothing, Morpheus embodies freedom and openness. As you gaze upon this remarkable print by Bridgeman Images, let your imagination wander into the realm of dreams where reality blends with fantasy. Allow yourself to be captivated by Restout's masterful brushstrokes that bring forth a sense of peace and introspection within you.
