This artwork is painted by
Almeida Junior, a brazilian artist. He is famous for painting religious artworks. Many of
them are in Pinacoteca of São Paulo. His artworks were very realistic. He lived
in France during the Impressionist movement.
Almeida Junior died at age
49, on November 13, 1899. He was died in front of the Central Hotel of
Piracicaba.
This paint is an oil
painting on canvas and is in MASP.
We chose this artwork because it show a woman
that is brazilian like us and because of the realism of the paint. The woman
appears to be in a daydreaming or reflecting, the same thing what we do in that
time. The artwork shows the strength of feminism. Women could not cut her hair
short or read a book, only with the permission of their husbands. We also liked
the fact of the painter is a brazilian and that the work is realist.
Curiosity:
- The full name of the
artist is José Ferraz de Almeida Júnior.
-He was dead stabbed by his
cousin, husband of the woman that remained a secret romantic relationship for
several years.
Good bye! We hope you
