Two Young Women Kissing (Deux jeunes femmes embrassant), ca 1790-1794 - A Captivating Glimpse into Forbidden Love
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to late 18th-century France, where societal norms and expectations were being challenged. Created by the talented artist Boilly, this neoclassical masterpiece titled "Two Young Women Kissing" explores a theme rarely depicted in art during that era - lesbian love. The painting beautifully captures the intimacy and tenderness shared between these two young women. Their embrace is both passionate and delicate, as they defy societal conventions with their affectionate gesture. The artist's skillful use of oil on canvas brings forth a sense of realism, allowing us to feel the emotions radiating from the subjects. Boilly's work challenges traditional notions of gender roles and sexuality, offering a glimpse into an often-hidden aspect of human experience. This piece serves as a testament to the resilience and strength of those who dared to express their true selves despite social constraints. Preserved within The Ramsbury Manor Foundation's collection, this artwork continues to provoke thought and inspire conversations about love, desire, and acceptance across generations. It stands as a reminder that love knows no boundaries or limitations – it simply exists in its purest form. As we gaze upon this extraordinary image captured by Fine Art Images/Heritage Images, let us appreciate its historical significance while celebrating the power of love in all its diverse manifestations throughout time.
