About the Item

Oil on canvas, applied to board. French School. Signed F. Barthélemy and dated 1876 at lower left. The scene is oriental in taste and setting, suggesting the education, domestic and intellectual, of a young girl (the albeit secular reference to the Education of the Virgin is compelling!): a young girl, standing in the center of the scene, while intent on a work of embroidery listens to the teaching of her mother, who holds in her hands written sheets; the older woman is dressed in oriental dress and reclining on a triclinium, while, behind her, a servant girl draws aside the curtain, leaving the background of an imposing classical temple to appear. The scene is characterized by the details of the setting that are well cared for and rich in detail, as in the bouquet of flowers on the embroidery table, the fabric covering the triclinium on which the mother is lying; the intimate, domestic atmosphere is emphasized by the earthy colors of the palace walls, on which the bright hues of the figures stand out, well illuminated by the light erupting from 'outside. The painting is presented in styled frame.
