Edward Robert Hughes (1851–1914) Midsummer Eve, 1908, watercolor and gouache on paper, 114 x 76, 2 cm, Private collection. . Edward Robert Hughes began his career among the Pre-Raphaelites, and his earlier subjects were often based in Shakespearian or other literary themes. Hughes' turn to Symbolism was likely prompted by his relationship with Edward Burne-Jones who, by his death in 1898, had an exceedingly powerful influence over the successful Academicians of the late Victorian era. Burne-Jones' aesthetics are particularly present in 'Midsummer Eve' with the delicate and otherworldly detachment of its mysterious female character, its play with contrasting shapes and volumes, compositional space, and shifts in perspective. A brilliant watercolorist, Hughes uses the medium to fill the picture surface with hazy, dreamlike swabs of saturated colour, and employs more heavily bodied gouache to create these appealing, hilarious fairy tale characters. #PierreAugusteRenoir #Renoir #art #arthistory #paris #france #french #frenchart #français #impressionists #artist #Impressionism #portrait #pittore #pittura #pintor #pintura #peintre #peinture #impressionnisme #IntheGarden #imresionismo #Maler #Malerei #masterpiece #painting #painterRenoir Kuva vähem
