my teacher wants a paper written about meanings and hidden symbols. Ive been looking all around for information and ive been having alot of trouble finding anything. could use some help please
Does anyone know the meaning of the painting Iris and Morpheus by Pierre Narcissus Guenna?
This is an odd question. Do you mean Pierre Narcisse Guérin?
It is all wrapped up in allegorical and mythological depictions of Lady Liberty awakening the oppressed and leading them into enlightenment. An in depth study of the despots who ruled Europe and in particular France, before and after the Revolution is in order to truly understand this rather odd depiction. However, it is almost certainly an interpretation without a deeply felt cause. In other words, just a painting.
Because, until Eugene Delacroix came along with the courage to depict the vile conservative hatred of Charles X which was destroying the French people once again, did anything come close to depicting the true meaning of Liberty.
