Danae by Orazio Gentileschi, circa 1623

Danaë, c. 1623. Orazio Gentileschi (Italian, 1563-1639). Oil on canvas; framed: 202.5 x 270 x 9 cm (79 3/4 x 106 5/16 x 3 9/16 in.); unframed: 162 x 228.5 cm (63 3/4 x 89 15/16 in.). Danaës father feared a prophecy that his grandson would kill him, so he imprisoned his daughter to protect her from suitors. Yet Jupiter, king of the gods, fell in love with Danaë, and he came to her in the form of gold streaming from the sky. Gentileschi adopted Caravaggios method of painting directly from models, pulled to the front of the picture plane, which gives the painting a startling, tangible quality. However, the graceful way he handled paint and human gestures lends the work a poetic quality unique to the artist.

Diana and Cupid. Artist: Pompeo Batoni (Italian, Lucca 1708-1787 Rome). Dimensions: 49 x 68 in. (124.5 x 172.7 cm). Date: 1761.The picture was painted for Sir Humphrey Morice (1723-1785), son of a wealthy merchant and director of the Bank of England. Morice was a great animal lover and commissioned from Batoni a portrait of himself reclining in the Roman countryside after the hunt as a pendant to this picture, which shows the goddess of the hunt withholding the bow from Cupid. The picture was considered the finest Batoni had ever painted. The figure of Diana is based on the celebrated ancient statue of the sleeping Ariadne in the Vatican, which Batoni has invested with extraordinary warmth and feeling.

This painting, titled Naiad, was done by the French painter Jean Jacques Henner (1829-1905). His chief distinction as an artist is the revival of the forgotten art of painting soft, velvety flesh which he inspire. He did so by choosing the twilight hour, when the landscape itself loses its color, while the luminous flesh retains the light and palpitates with its glow. His "Naiad" shows his manner of doing this, and illustrates his method of painting flesh and of throwing light upon it, by which he attained an important place in the world of art.

In the classic tale from the Hebrew Bible, or Christian Old Testament, Samson is an Israelite of great physical strength. He confides in his lover, Delilah, that the secret of his strength is his long hair, which has never been cut since the day he was born. Delilahperhaps one of history’s first ‘femmes fatales’betrays Samson by informing his enemies. In this famous scene, Samson is asleep in the lap of his mistress who urges two accomplices to cut Samson’s hair with the scissors she wields. His hair cut and strength diminished, Samson is overpowered and arrested by the soldiers at the door. But when he is taken in chains to a temple feast, Samson pushes over two great pillars causing the entire temple to fall down, killing everyone inside, including himself.

Study of a Nude Man early 1840s Attributed to Gustave Courbet This training exercise is thought to have been painted by the young Courbet shortly after his arrival in Paris in 1839, when he studied for several months with baron Charles de Steuben (1788-1856) and then at the Académie Suisse. In an era when themes drawn from antiquity and the Bible stood at the head of an established hierarchy of subjects, the successful rendering of the unclothed male body was a benchmark of an artists formation. Few such works from Courbets earliest years survive, and the origins of this painting remain obscure.. Study of a Nude Man.

Her portrait of herself created such a sensation that her election became assured. She had to paint the usual formal tableau de reception, and chose Allegory, painting her La Paix ramenant lAbondance, which, though a somewhat stilted affair such as Academies demand, is full of charm and is still to be seen at the Louvre."
