3. “Marie-Antoinette de Lorraine-Habsbourg, queen of France, and her children”

Title of artwork: Marie-Antoinette de Lorraine-Habsbourg, queen of France, and her children (Marie Antoinette and Her Children)

Date: 1787 | Medium: Oil on canvas | Size: 108.3 x 85.2 in

About artwork:

The last sitting of her majesty, the last time I’ve ever painting for her, the last time time I would’ve possibly seen her... Whew! This was perhaps one of my most controversial ambitious paintings I’ve ever done. Out of the numerous portrait paintings I’ve painted in the past, this was my biggest! I never painted more than 1-2 people in one sitting before thus including her children in the portrait.

As the hostility of peasants and fishwives of the lowest estate boiled outside Versailles, the King commissioned me to paint the Queen, in the utmost sympathetic image possible. As I know the Queen herself, she has presented the most charm and kindness to me ever since we met. This time, out of 30 portraits of her, I painted her not as a lavish queen but a compassionate mother. I hope people can get behind the attempted symbolism I've added in; the clothes the Queen wears show great comfort and loose fitting than the other lavish and bright colored gowns she wore, her wearing red shows the more "subdued" and calm atmosphere she invites and having a lack of jewelry and the crown being kept in the shadows above the cabinet shows that her greatest treasures are her children. l told administrators of the salon not to exhibit it, I dreaded the possibility of bitter remarks on my work by the public. The Salon administrators insisted though, my painting is to save her Majesty's reputation after all. So thus the “Royal Family” and its lifesize grandeur anchored the halls of the Salon of 1787.

It was indeed a very political painting at the time, what do you call it? “Royalist propaganda?”, I was only doing my job. With that, It would be a year before everything slowly crumbled; the royal palace, my clients, my home. The revolution was on the rise with the formation of the National Assembly and then the storming of Bastille. I remember seeing angry crowds on the streets of Paris and it terrified me. As a Royalist, my life was at stake, so it was time I took my daughter and became one of the many émigrés to get out of the country, on the night of October 6th 1789. I left my life in court behind (I also left my husband behind but we were about to get a divorce anyways)and it would be 12 years until I see France once again.

Now in this century, I am glad to see that my painting is currently hung at the Palace today. I heard that after the Dauphin died back in 1789, the Queen asked for the painting hung in the Mars Room to be removed. If it wasn’t for its removal it would have been damaged during the revolution or even the Women’s march at Versailles. Maybe you could visit it sometime, I’ll be enjoying the spectacle from afar ;-)

🏛️ Vanishing point at its best in Schleissheim Palace - 📌 Schleissheim combines not only a great variety of baroque and rococó room styles, also materials and atmospheres. One of the best examples of this way to built architecture is the main hallway. Here we find one of the most refined combinations of materials and baroque patterns to highlight not the interior, otherwise the exterior. The soft colors (never changed since 1723) were selected to raise from the windows the green colors of the magnificent formal gardens outside. Big windows are match perfectly with toscan columns made with Tegernsee marble and illusionist vaults painted by Nikolaus Gottfried Stuber. @schloesserverwaltung.bayern - #palace #baroque #palacio #neoclassic #schloss #rococo #museums #admagazine (en Schlossanlage Schleißheim) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkG3Y9ZAQoa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

O Balanço, por Jean-Honoré Fragonard

Originalmente, o artista francês Gabriel François Doyen havia sido comissionado pelo Barão Saint-Julien, o arrecadador de impostos do clero, a pintar um quadro o qual ele mesmo havia idealizado previamente. No entanto, Doyen ofendeu-se pela frivolidade da proposta e a encaminhou para Fragonard, considerado na época o “querubim da pintura erótica”, que aceitou a encomenda com satisfação. A rica composição de Jean-Honoré Fragonard retrata a amante do barão em um balanço, sendo delicadamente empurrada por um bispo. Enquanto à sua frente, está um homem, o Barão Saint-Julien, escondido entre a densa vegetação. De maneira implícita, O Balanço apresenta temas de sexualidade e erotismo, disfarçados por uma cena aparentemente pueril.

O Balanço (L'Escarpolette, em francês) de 1767, considerado uma das obras-primas do rococó, usa técnica de tinta a óleo sobre tela e possui dimensões de 81 por 64,2, em centímetros. Atualmente, ele faz parte da Coleção Wallace, em Londres, no Reino Unido.

A seguir, estão as releituras de O Balanço, realizadas através do sistema de Inteligência Artificial (I.A), DALL-E 2:

Rococo neoclassicist oil painting of a french noble pale lady in a rococo light pink dress silk frock with ruffles and a bonnet in a swing flowing mid-air while there is a man pushing the swing and a man in front of her in the background is a blueish green garden and a angel statue

“Pintura a óleo rococó neoclassicista de uma pálida dama nobre francesa em um vestido rosa claro seda com babados e um chapéu em um balanço voando ao ar enquanto tem um homem empurrando o balanço e um homem na frente dela no fundo tem um jardim verde azulado e a estatua de um anjo”

A narrativa retratada por Jean-Honoré Fragonard em O Balanço não foi reproduzida com bastante sucesso nas releituras geradas pela inteligência artificial. A riqueza em elementos foi um desafio ao descrever a obra, resultando, assim, em imagens confusas, com leve distorção em seus personagens.

Alphabetics - Supernova

Hey! First song of the month! Every Sunday, as I mentioned on the previous post, will have a song made in Costa Rica, in celebration of our independence day.

This week's track is called 'Supernova' by the dance-punk band 'Alphabetics'. So, what about these guys?

About the band

Alphabetics, as said already, is a dance-punk band from Costa Rica, formed in 2011 by:

Jhavier Sánchez (guitar and keyboards), Bryan Rothschild (bass), Alejandro Pacheco (guitar and vocals) and, Alexandro Baviera (drums).

Alejandro Pacheco, known as 'Pana' is also the singer of the band 'Polär' (which I realized a while ago and everything clicked with my thought of "hey, Polär sounds kinda like Alphabetics but in Spanish."

In 2012, they released their first EP, titled 'Selfdestructive', which gained traction as its tracks 'Frutista' and 'Bistek' became popular. 'Bistek' was actually the intro for the now disappeared 'Canal 9' show 'Untitled'. On the other hand, 'Frutista' was featured on TV and radio, and catapulted the band to the spotlight.

On 2015, they released their first feature length album 'Animal Planets', which also contains some well known songs like '25', 'Paint Paint Paint' and of course, 'Supernova'.

The band has played at several Costarican festivals such as Rock Fest, Festival Imperial and Holi One Colour Festival; as well as international festivals like Culture Collide (US), Canadian Music Festival Toronto (CA), , Boiler Room (US) and Red Gorilla (US).

They have also played with national bands like VOODOO, 424, Percance and República Fortuna, but also Panteón Rococó (MX), Cultura Profética (PR) and Bersuit Vergarabat (ARG).

The bassist, Bryan Roth, was supposedly leaving alphabetics, however it seems that either he didn't leave, or it was just a hiatus.

But what about 'Supernova' itself?

About the song

'Supernova' starts with a rhythm that can sound a bit ambiguous on its own. Could be on 4/4 or could be on 6/8, however it's clearly revealed seconds later that it definitely is a 4 to the floor, with a disco vibe, but also Pana's raspy and powerful vocals, which contrast with the music in a really cool way and mark that very specific Alphabetics vibe.

You can hear how the song's energy fluctuates and has high and low points, the storm of winter and the sunshine and peace of spring, just to return to the lightning and power and end on a dry, decisive note.

Supernova was also featured on a Sofar Sounds Session, what an honor!

Any meaning?

Its lyrics describe, at least for me, how a guy does everything he can for a significant other, even if it seems like they don't appreciate it much.

But they realize about that effort and act surprised, which itches the guy a bit, and he therefore tells them to "not look at him with those eyes" as if he was mad that the person acts as if that's not a repetitive behaviour that benefits them.

Go follow Alphabetics on instagram, facebook and twitter. Their website seems to be down right now, but you can always check it on the wayback machine. I also found an old tumblr blog they had, so cool!

You can of course listen to them on spotify and youtube!
