"Legende: Unveiling the Mythical Tales through Art" Step into a world where legends come to life, as depicted in these captivating artworks. From ancient myths to historical events, each piece tells a story that has stood the test of time. In "Saturn Devouring His Son, " we witness Francisco Goya's haunting portrayal of Greek mythology. The monstrous Saturn engulfs his own child, symbolizing the destructive nature of power and its consequences. Delving into Orientalism, Eugene Delacroix presents "Selim And Zuleika Or The Fiancee Of Abydos. " This oil painting transports us to an enchanting tale from Arabian Nights, where love triumphs over cultural boundaries. Jacques-Louis David's masterpiece "Rape of the Sabine Women" captures a pivotal moment in Roman history. The intense emotions and dynamic composition depict the clash between desire and honor during this legendary event. Alexander the Great takes center stage in Benjamin West's "Alexander giving Campaspe to Apelles. " This artwork portrays Alexander's generosity towards his beloved mistress, showcasing both his power and compassion. Moving forward in time, we encounter Maurice Boutet de Monvel's chilling illustration titled "L'apparition d'un spectre - in 'Je sais tout'". It immerses us in a spine-tingling ghostly encounter that sends shivers down our spines even today. Leopold Hugo's intriguing illustration depicts an unexpected act of kindness amidst enmity. In "Leopold Hugo giving a drink to an enemy seeking to kill him, " we witness how compassion can transcend hatred and change destinies forever. Paul Albert Besnard invites us to join a whimsical fable on Happy Island with his decorative wallpaper painting from 1900. Boats filled with guests converge on grassy shores for a banquet like no other—a celebration of imagination and joyous camaraderie.
