EDITORS COMMENTS
Edgard Maxence's captivating painting, "Jeune femme jouant de la mandore ou Solitude," created in 1910, showcases a young woman lost in thought as she plays the mandore, a traditional stringed instrument native to France. The Pre-Raphaelite influence is evident in the rich, vibrant colors and intricate details that bring the scene to life. The young woman's long, flowing hair is meticulously styled, adorned with lace and held in place by an elegant headdress. Her hairstyle, reminiscent of the fashionable hairdos of the time, adds to the overall allure of the artwork. The painting's setting is simple yet evocative, with the young woman positioned against a plain background, allowing the focus to remain on her and the mandore. The wooden instrument, with its intricate design and delicate strings, is the focal point of the composition. The use of oil paint adds depth and texture to the painting, making the image come alive. This artwork is a testament to the artistic heritage of France and the enduring appeal of traditional musical instruments. It can be found in the prestigious collections of Paris museums, including the Petit Palais, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors. The painting's title, "Solitude," suggests a sense of introspection and quiet reflection, making it a poignant and thought-provoking addition to any art collection.
