EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that showcases the contrasting rewards women might expect based on their conduct. Created by Andre Jacques Victor Orsel, this thought-provoking artwork delves into themes of judgment, religion, and gender roles prevalent in the 19th century. At the center of the composition sits Christ, embodying divine authority as he separates the blessed from the damned. Archangel Michael shields those deemed righteous while Lucifer tempts those condemned to eternal suffering. The vignettes surrounding them depict various outcomes for women's behavior: Chastity, Marriage, Motherhood, and Happiness symbolize virtuous choices leading to fulfillment; whereas Lust, Rejection, Distress of unmarried motherhood, and Desperation culminate in despair. Orsel's oil painting skillfully captures these dichotomies through vivid colors and intricate details. It serves as a reminder of society's expectations placed upon women during that era – where chastity was praised while lust was condemned. This artwork also sheds light on issues such as sexism and societal judgments faced by women at that time. By exploring concepts like goodness versus evilness within a religious context, Orsel prompts viewers to reflect on how societal norms can shape perceptions of virtue or sin based solely on one's gender. Displayed at Lyon's Museum of Fine Arts in France today, "Good and Evil" continues to provoke contemplation about historical attitudes towards femininity while showcasing Orsel's mastery as an artist.
