About "Evelyn De Morgan, Boreas and Oreithyia - 1896"

by Atelier Liesjes

About the artwork

During the first three decades of her working career, Evelyn constantly revisited the theme of mythology, no doubt partly due to the fact that the theme was equally popular on the art market of the time.

In this painting Boreas, the Greek god of the north wind, is depicted as usual as a winged man of adult age, with floating hair in the wind. According to legend, he carried Oreithyia (daughter of Erechtheus) away from the banks of the Ilissus and had several children with her. However, Evelyn's portryal of Boreas is sensitive and sensitive compared to more of the character's more standard bachanelean treatments.
Both persons are naked. The man hides behind the woman, so only legs and torso are in the portrait. The girl is minimally covered and virtually naked, so her legs, belly, torso and breasts are portrayed.
Evelyn De Morgan (London, 30 August 1855 - there, 2 May 1919) was an English painter associated with the movement of the Pre-Raphaelites. She studied spiritualism, was an advocate of social reforms such as women's suffrage and was interested in moral issues. She derived her themes from religious and allegorical figures and scenes and strong female figures, often with a message of hope and courage.
