La collection impressionniste du #MuseumLangmatt de #Baden s'expose au #WallrafRichartzMuseum de #Cologne, une première hors de Suisse. Si les œuvres sont présentées avec celles impressionnistes du musée allemand, ces dernières s'avèrent bien plus intéressantes. Pas dit que c'était voulu...
This painting is of the 1893 Symbolist play "Pelléas and Mélisande" by Belgian playwright Maurice Maeterlinck about forbidden, doomed love. In this scene Melisande, wearing a long red dress and beautiful patterned undershirt is by a stream in the woods where she has lost her golden crown in the water, but does not wish to retrieve it; there she is discovered by her future husband Golaud. They marry, and she instantly wins the favor of Arkël, Golaud's grandfather and king of Allemonde, who is ill. She begins to be drawn to Pelléas, Golaud's brother. They meet by the fountain, where Mélisande loses her wedding ring. Golaud grows suspicious of the lovers, has his son Yniold spy on them, and discovers them caressing, whereupon he kills Pelléas and wounds Mélisande. She later dies after giving birth to an abnormally small girl. Marianne Stokes (née Preindlsberger) was an Austrian painter. She settled in England after her marriage to Adrian Scott Stokes, the landscape painter, whom she had met in Pont-Aven, France. Stokes was considered one of the leading women artists in Victorian England.
