Roger et Angelique
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres is a captivating pencil drawing that captures a moment of intense emotion and bravery. The artwork, measuring 47x37.2 cm, depicts the scene from "Orlando Furioso" an epic poem by Ludovico Ariosto. In this close-up composition, we see Roger, a gallant knight on horseback, rescuing Angelique from the clutches of a fearsome sea monster. With arms raised and lance in hand, he bravely confronts the creature while looking down at his beloved with deep affection and determination. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of the pencil on calque laid down on wove paper. Ingres masterfully captures the expressions and postures of both characters, conveying their intense feelings through their facial expressions and body language. This 19th-century masterpiece showcases Ingres' skillful use of light and shadow to create depth and drama within the natural space surrounding them. The coastline serves as a backdrop for this mythical encounter between man and beast. Through this artwork, Ingres explores themes of love, heroism, and religious observance. It invites viewers to reflect upon concepts such as courage, sacrifice, and devotion. With its rich historical context combined with exceptional artistic technique, "Roger et Angelique" continues to captivate audiences today. This fine art print offers an opportunity to bring home a piece of French art history that will inspire conversation and admiration for years to come.
