Desdemona (The Song of the Willow) 1849 Théodore Chassériau This painting is based on a print, part of a suite of etchings by Chassériau illustrating Shakespeares Othello, which was published in Paris in 1844. It depicts act 4, scene 3 of the play, a final moment of calm preceding Desdemonas murder by her husband, Othello. Desdemonas maid, Emilia, who was complicit in orchestrating the crime, shrinks away, cringing at the knowledge of what is about to occur. The lyre Desdemona holds was not described by Shakespeare; Chassériau observed it in an 1836 production in which the role was performed by the celebrated singer Maria Malibran Garcia (1808-1836), called La Malibran..

Josefa de Castilla Portugal y van Asbrock de Garcini (1775-about 1850) 1804 Goya (Francisco de Goya y Lucientes) Spanish Evidently conceived as a pendant to the portrait of her husband, Ignacio Garcini y Queralt, this is a radically different, comparatively unceremonious portrait. Doña Garcinis pregnancy may account for her loose dress and hair, but her pose as well as the palette and paint handling all tie this depiction to artistic precedents that Goya would have known in the Spanish royal collections: Rubenss voluptuous, red-haired women and Rembrandts monumental heroines, notably his Judith at the Banquet of Holofernes of 1634 (Museo del Prado, Madrid)..
