The Little Cicada or Portrait of the Artist's Daughter, Albert Joseph Pénot, 1901.

Pénot built his reputation almost entirely on macabre, darkly sensual nudes, witches heading to the Sabbath, a woman literally titled "The Bat-Woman." This painting is a strange outlier in that body of work: a tender, fully clothed portrait of his own daughter, knocking at a locked door with a lute in hand. Even his most gothic biographers seem thrown by how gentle it is compared to everything else he made.

The King's Daughter, Eduard Veith.

She isn't smiling and she isn't posing, that steady, almost defiant stare is what makes this portrait unusual for its genre. Veith made his name largely through theater work, painting curtains and ceiling decorations for opera houses across the Austro-Hungarian Empire. That theatrical instinct shows here too, the crown and jewels lit just enough against the near-black background to feel like a single frozen moment on a stage.

[耽美なる絵画とモノ @Estetism_jp]

還らぬ人を悼む、美しくも哀しい絵。
題名の《Mon Brave》はフランス語で「私の勇敢な人」。描かれたのは1870年頃。肖像の男性はおそらく普仏戦争で命を落としたのでしょう。お供えの花にも意味があります。月桂樹は勝利と栄光、白薔薇は純潔と愛、勿忘草は亡き人への追慕。若き未亡人の哀悼が伝わってきます。
