Solitude
Fantin-Latour, Henri, 1836-1904 · 1882
A shady path runs along the left edge of the still water. In the background, a small figure of woman stands on a tuft of greenery and daydreams. White temple columns appear in the back and are half hidden by other trees. The Goddess of the Night, lies on the clouds in the sky, near the wide disk of the illuminating moon. Diaphanous veils float around her. (Schumann, Op. 39, Solitude, melody of a song of Eichendorff, Schöne Fremde)
