EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases George Dunlop Leslie's masterpiece, "Matilda - Dante, Purgatorio, Canto 28". Painted in 1859 with oil on canvas, this enchanting artwork measures 51.3x92.7 cm and is currently held in a private collection. Leslie skillfully captures the essence of Matilda, a character from Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. Dressed in an exquisite medieval costume adorned with delicate floral patterns, Matilda kneels gracefully amidst the lush Garden of Eden. The painting exudes a sense of tranquility and purity as Matilda becomes one with nature. The Pre-Raphaelite influence is evident in Leslie's attention to detail and use of vibrant colors that bring life to every petal and leaf within the garland surrounding Matilda. This traditional style resonates deeply with admirers of classical art. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to a world where beauty intertwines seamlessly with spirituality. Through his brushstrokes, Leslie invites us to explore the depths of our imagination while immersing ourselves in the rich symbolism found throughout Dante's epic poem. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly captured this extraordinary painting through their lens, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details even from afar. This print serves as a testament to both Leslie's artistic prowess and Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving fine art for generations to come.
