A Young Woman Warming her Hands over a Brazier: Allegory of Winter. Cesar Boetius van Everdingen (1617-1678) oil on canvas, c 1644-1648. The young woman warms her hands above a dish of glowing coals. She personifies Winter. This season was usually represented as a shabbily dressed old man or woman; old because the year is coming to an end and poor because the crops do not grow in the winter. Van Everdingens choice of a young, richly attired woman is thus rather unusual.Man lighting his pipe, by Michelangelo Pittatore 1825/1903 oil on canvas, 75x60 cm.A Young Artist (Ditlev Blunck) Examining a Sketch in a Mirror.

Baixeras trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in his native Barcelona and made his international debut with this painting, which was exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1886. It was purchased there by the New York banker, railroad magnate, and art collector George I. Seney, an early supporter of The Met.. Boatmen of Barcelona 435599Brick Wall with Open Door and Shovel.
