ID: #9565 | Le réalisme | Personnes

Date: 1902

Le tableau dépeint une scène riche en symbolisme mythologique. On y voit un groupe de nymphes nues dansant et lévitant autour de l'eau dans une forêt au crépuscule ou à l'aube. Au premier plan, deux hommes assis, tournant le dos au spectateur, regardent les nymphes danser. Les figures respirent le dynamisme et le mouvement. Le tableau est exécuté dans des couleurs pastel douces avec des tons dominants de blanc, de rose et de vert.

William-Adolphe Bouguereau (1825-1905). French academic painter. In his choice of topics, he was a traditionalist: he painted mythological scenes and modern interpretations of Classicist themes (with an emphasis on painting the female body). Bouguereau admired Raphael, and even gave him one of his paintings. In his time, he was considered one of the finest painters, even abroad. At the end of his career, his paintings began to seem too traditionalist, with techniques embedded in the past. In some encyclopaedias, his name even ceased to appear. To date, however, we can consider some of his works beautiful and inspiring.
