Pierre-Auguste Renoir: L’église à Essoyes
“Although Renoir would keep his rented Parisian apartment throughout his life, from the late 1880s onward, much of his time would be spent in the countryside enjoying the tranquil pleasures the retreat had to offer. Renoir’s middle son, Jean, wrote of their home in the region with great nostalgia, “Essoyes, where my mother and Gabrielle…

William Adolphe Bouguereau: The Pieta
“The immediate inspiration for Pietà came not from Bouguereau’s devout Christianity, but from the painful loss of his eldest son Georges who died on July 19, 1875 at the age of sixteen. After spending several months overwhelmed by grief, Bouguereau sought to lift his spirits by fully immersing himself in his art. For several weeks,…
Matthew West: When God Whispers Your Name
“Although this picture was executed earlier, it appears to have been reworked by Hacker in 1914, at the outbreak of the First World War. This accounts for the painting being signed twice, once lower right, and later lower left. To add poignancy, an eagle (symbol of the German Empire) hovers upper right, while the figure…
