🎨 Dancing Fairies, 1866
by August Malmström 🇸🇪
oil on canvas, 90 x 149 cm
Nationalmuseum, Sweden
🪄About the artwork:
In "Dancing Fairies," Malmström depicts a group of fairies, ethereal creatures from Nordic folklore, in a moonlit glade, dancing in a circle. This scene is likely set in a lush forest under the light of the moon, with the fairies rendered in delicate, almost translucent tones that give them an otherworldly appearance. The composition would be dynamic yet harmonious, with the fairies arranged in a way that suggests movement and the fluidity of their dance. 4 replies

🎨 Vertumnus and Pomona, 1638
by Jacob Jordaens 🇧🇪
Oil on canvas. 196 x 266 cm.
National Museum of Ancient Art, Portugal
About the artwork:
In "Vertumnus and Pomona," Jordaens illustrates the mythological story of Vertumnus and Pomona from Ovid's Metamorphoses. Pomona, a nymph and goddess of fruitful abundance in orchards and gardens, is pursued by the god Vertumnus, who is the deity of seasons, change, and plant growth. Jordaens captures the moment when Vertumnus, having disguised himself as an old woman, tries to woo Pomona, who was known for her disinterest in suitors but her dedication to the cultivation of orchards. 4 replies
