Happy Samhain!

The third volume of "The Library of Esoterica" has just been published by TASCHEN. It focuses on witchcraft and is chock full of images by our favorite painter, John William Waterhouse.

From the TASCHEN website:

A spellbinding journey through the global history of witchcraft, the third volume in The Library of Esoterica follows this magickal tradition from its ancient roots to its modern incarnations. Through more than 400 artworks, and revelatory essays and interviews with modern practitioners, Witchcraft chronicles a cathartic evolution, from the craft’s emergence in ancient goddess worship to the embrace by today’s diverse witch community.

“The outcast” by Richard Redgrave 

Painted in 1851, Richard Redgrave uses oils to depict a Victorian family’s response to a daughter bringing home an illegitimate child. Reminiscent of the romanticism movement, Redgrave has filled this painting with emotion and drama. The father, firm in his decision to cast out his daughter and grandchild- I’m assuming, reflects the unmovable societal principals and morals that were held at the time. Redgrave has depicted a daughter begging to her father in the fore-ground of the painting to no effect, while what could be a son, weeps behind, being comforted by his mother as another looks on in confusion. The begging daughter being placed in the fore-ground, in a yellow garment which is noticeable against the other colours, is important as it highlights the desperation caused by the situation, helping the onlooker to feel sympathetic. The daughter being noticeable also highlights her fathers’ character, which is portrayed as cruel and harsh. However, to a Victorian onlooker, the father could be a symbol of strength, holding his ground to do what was deemed “right”.  This is because during the Victorian era, Christianity was the main religion, and they believed that bearing a child out of wedlock was sinful and would bring shame upon the family.  Another family member seems to be praying in the background, Redgrave has painted her as almost looking desperate, as if she is begging to God but to no avail, again, this shows the feelings of desperation but also the views that society held at the time in regards to bearing children out of wedlock.

The women bearing the child is being cast out into the snow, this painting seems very biblical so reminds me of Eve being cast out of the garden of Eden and having to survive in a wasteland for committing a sin. Redgrave seems to be suggesting that having a child out of wedlock is sinful, and will only cause a family sorrow. However, this painting is quite ambiguous and it could be interpreted in a different way. This painting evokes sympathy towards the young mother being abandoned by her family, and sparks the feelings of resentment towards the father, as I mentioned earlier. I believe that Redgrave doesn’t agree with the societal principals held at the time, as otherwise he would not have painted such a dark scene full of anguish and despair. However, it could have been interpreted in a manner that could have harmed young mothers in situations similar to the one depicted here, or would have left the viewer with conflicted opinions on the matter. Therefore, I believe that when tackling a message such as this one, it would be helpful to the viewer to make the message clear, as otherwise it may lead to a misinterpretation, or cause a divide of opinion on the matter.

This year I’m taking a more keener approach of doing copy classical paintings for studying light and composition from 16th- 19th circa. This is a study painting of William Bougreau, Worked on this for 2 days! https://www.instagram.com/p/B61WwsMHtxr/?igshid=16ogwipmnepfh

'The Lady of Shalott', (1861) by Henry Peach Robinson (1830-1901, Victorian photographer), based on Alfred Lord Tennyson's (1809-1892, Victorian poet laureate) 1833 poem of the same name. Swipe to compare the composition to John Everett Millais' (1829-1896, painter and co-founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood) 1852 painting, which takes Shakespeare's (1564-1616, English playwright, but you knew that) Ophelia from his great tragedy, 'Hamlet' (~1599-1601) as its subject and its title. If you've not read Tennyson's 'The Lady of Shalott', do so - it's the dreamy ballad of a dead girl floating down a river, and obviously a Generally Gothic favourite! #generallygothic #gothic #victorianpoetry #victorianphotography #victorianpainting #theladyofshallot #ophelia #hamlet #alfredlordtennyson #henrypeachrobinson #johneverettmillais #williamshakespeare #preraphaelitebrotherhood #preraphaelites #classicliterature #classicpoetry #classicart #compositioncomparison #academic
