EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oil on canvas painting, titled "Pomona" and created by the renowned French artist Robert Tournieres (circa late 17th to early 18th century), showcases the mythological figure of Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruitfulness and fertility. Dressed in the elegant attire of the time, Pomona is depicted wearing a voluminous, richly colored gown adorned with metallic thread and gold embroidery. Her intricately designed hat is adorned with pearl earrings and a pearl necklace, adding to the opulence of her appearance. The painting, which is now housed at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of the French artistic school during the 17th and 18th centuries. The concept of Pomona as a symbol of fruitfulness and abundance is beautifully captured in this allegorical work, with the goddess holding a cornucopia and surrounded by an array of ripe fruits. The intricate details of Pomona's clothing and accessories, such as the delicate ribbons and the intricate patterns of her hat, are a reflection of the high-quality haberdashery and jewelry available during this period. The use of vibrant colors and the skillful application of thread work add to the visual appeal of the painting, making it a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art. Robert Tournieres, also known as Le Vrac de Tournieres or Levrac Tournieres, was a prominent painter of the time, known for his allegorical and mythological paintings. This masterpiece, "Pomona," is a testament to his artistic talent and the artistic heritage of France during the 17th and 18th centuries.
