The peasant of Fontainebleau (Camponesa de Fontainebleau) by Columbano Bordalo Pinheiro (Portuguese) - Oil on canvas / 1881 - Casa-Museu Anastácio Gonçalves (Lisbon, Portugal) #WomenInArt #art #artText #AnastácioGonçalves #ColumbanoBordaloPinheiro #Columbano #PortugueseArtist #PortugueseArt #bskyart
After completing his studies in fine arts, Portuguese Realist painter Columbano Bordalo Pinheiro, who is usually referred to as Columbano, left for Paris, France for a two year residency which was funded primarily by the Countess d’Edla, second wife of the former King Ferdinand II of Portugal. This support allowed Columbano to set-up a studio on the Boulevard Raspail in Montparnasse. This work, created in January of 1881, was one of the first produced in his Paris studio. The absence of a framed landscape and rendering of natural light suggests the artist’s rejection of naturalism, to present a full-length portrait of a woman, presumably from the Forest of Fontainebleau near Paris, standing against a muted blend of pale grays and blues. She is wearing a dark, long well-worn simple dress. Over the dress, she wears a large, loose-fitting, taupe-colored rough woolen cloak that drapes around her body, giving a feeling of weight and poverty. Underneath, a glimpse of a lighter-colored garment is visible at her neck. She also wears a pinkish-brown bonnet. The color scheme is subdued, consisting of browns, grays, and muted earth tones, accentuating a somber mood. The woman's posture is slightly hunched, and her head is bowed, her gaze directed downward. Her expression is somber and pensive, conveying a sense of sadness, weariness, or quiet contemplation. The atmosphere is contemplative and melancholic. The muted colors, the woman's posture, and her downcast expression work together to create a mood of quiet sorrow and introspection. The style suggests a realism approach, focusing on capturing the subject's emotional state and physical appearance. Columbano's brushwork appears somewhat loose in places, enhancing a somewhat spontaneous feel. The lack of sharp detail and the focus on the emotional expression contribute to the picture's overall emotional impact.

Portrait of Amália Rodrigues by Eduardo Malta (Portuguese) - Oil on canvas / 1949 - Museu do Caramulo (Portugal) #womeninart #art #portraitofawoman #fineart #womensart #portrait #oilpainting #EduardoMalta #PortugueseArtist #MuseudoCaramulo #beauty #style #Malta #portraitofalady #PortugueseArt #1940s
The talented and beautiful Amália da Piedade Rebordão Rodrigues, known simply as Amália Rodrigues -- or popularly as Amália -- was a Portuguese fado singer (fadista). Dubbed "Rainha do Fado" (Queen of Fado), she was instrumental in popularizing fado music worldwide and traveled internationally throughout her career. In fact, Rodrigues remains the best-selling Portuguese performing artist in history. Fado is a deeply emotional and evocative musical genre from Portugal, often described as the country's "national treasure." It's characterized by mournful melodies, often about themes of fate, longing, and the human condition, particularly the experiences of the poor and the sea. Fado is traditionally performed by a solo singer, usually accompanied by a Portuguese guitar and a classical guitar. The term "fado" is likely derived from the Latin word "fatum" meaning fate or destiny. Rodrigues was hailed by Variety as one of the voices of the 20th century and remains one of the most internationally known Portuguese singers ... and in Portugal, a national icon. She put Fado in the world map, and her works continue to inspire other performers and singers. Portuguese artist Eduardo Augusto d'Oliveira Morais Melo Jorge Malta, better known as Eduardo Malta, was a prolific painter with an extensive gallery of portraits for some of Portugal's most legendary leaders and icons including Amalia. Despite his fame as an artist, he remained true to his academic painting principles while not particularly embracing modern art styles sweeping the art world in the middle of the century. In fact, his 1959 appointment as director of the National Museum of Contemporary Art in Lisbon was strongly contested, including a petition, due to his assumed opposition to modern art; however, he held the post until 1967.

Portrait of Luísa Maria by Eduardo Malta (Portuguese) - Oil on canvas / 1953 - Museu do Caramulo (Portugal) #womeninart #art #portraitofawoman #fineart #womensart #portrait #oilpainting #EduardoMalta #PortugueseArtist #MuseudoCaramulo #beauty #style #Malta #portraitofalady #PortugueseArt #bskyart
Portuguese artist Eduardo Malta depicts Luisa Maria as a young woman, likely in her late teens or early twenties, sitting on the edge of an elegant wooden chair covered in luxurious red velvet. She is turned back to look directly at us with her right arm extended across the back of the chair. She has a soft expression and features, yet her eyes are captivating. The makeup on her lightly-tanned oval face accentuates her straight nose, smooth cheeks and full dark red lips. Her light brown hair with hints of blonde is styled in loose waves, cascading down and curling in at her shoulders. She is wearing a sophisticated vibrant green plaid dress with a fitted bodice and a slightly flared skirt over her slender frame. The dress has cap sleeves and low cut exposing her bare shoulders. A thin black belt cinches the waist of the dress. No accessories like jewelry or other embellishments are needed to convey her style or beauty. An academic painter who studied at the Escola de Belas-Artes do Porto, Malta was briefly a companion of the Portuguese modernists of the 1920s. Thanks to an equestrian portrait of Primo de Rivera in 1928, he established himself as a preferred portrait artist of worldly elites including aristocrats, members of the haute bourgeoisie, politicians and some artists and intellectuals. An admirer of ancient painting and the work of David and Ingres, and openly rejecting all modern and contemporary practices, beginning with Impressionism itself, Malta cultivated a conventional style of neoclassical painting that could be inserted in the so-called “Return to Order” which, in the 1930s particularly, established the guidelines for much of the official production of "western" painting, in detriment to the avant-garde experimentation that had been initiated at the beginning of the century.
