This Is A Heart The Queen Leant On,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating painting from circa 1915, showcases a solitary man in deep contemplation as he descends a grand set of steps. The intricate arched hallways behind are filled with a parade of people, walking in various directions, creating an atmosphere of bustling activity and intrigue. This evocative work of art is a visual representation of the quote from Robert Browning's poem "Misconceptions," which delves into the complexities of love and self-identity. Browning, a renowned Victorian poet, penned this poem, which highlights the poet's past mild flings with women but emphasizes that he is truly himself only for the person he loves. The title of the painting draws inspiration from these poignant words, as the man appears to be lost in thought, perhaps reflecting on the depths of his heart and the true meaning of love. The painting, a beautiful example of early 20th-century art, is part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. This collection, which includes works by various artists, offers a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of the past. In this particular painting, the color palette is muted, with earthy tones and soft hues that add to the overall sense of introspection and melancholy. The painting, which can be found in the March volume of John Byam Liston Shaw's magazine, is a testament to the enduring power of poetry and art to capture the complexities of human emotion. It invites the viewer to ponder the depths of the human heart and the intricacies of love, offering a glimpse into the soul of the artist and the poet.
