Very large framed oil on canvas presenting 3 beautiful ladies seated in a rich interior.
The symbolism can enlighten us on the royal affiliation
the most important lady, in the center, crowned with gold and pearls, seated almost with her back turned, her face slightly turned to the right and looking at the crown and the fleur-de-lys scepter. placed on a velvet cushion
To her right, a young lady wearing a crown of flowers holds out a rose, symbol of purity and love
To her left, the lady with the starry crown holds out a golden sculpture of Minerva, symbol of wisdom
These three women seem very connected, they look in the same direction, they touch each other (hand behind the back, hand in hand) and seem to share the moment solemnly.
In the background, the curtain opens onto a green interior courtyard, with a large arcade with columns and frieze with lion heads.
The colors are bright, the painting is of quality; the talented artist even integrated gold leaf
This work is signed in the footrest, but the signature is illegible, and is dated 1883
The frame is richly decorated, like marble marquetry
Good condition, old restorations ( very well made, visible only at the back) and wear to the frame
Dimensions with frame: 214 x 185 cm
Dimensions without frame: 178 x 146 cm
