No dia em que passam 175 anos sobre o nascimento de Paul Gauguin [1848 – 1903], a obra Pobre Pescador, que pertence ao Museu de Arte de São Paulo (MASP), onde decorre até 6 de Agosto uma exposição inspirada no trabalho realizado pelo pintor pós impressionista durante as suas passagens pelas ilhas do Pacífico.
Van Gogh [30 March 1853 – 29 July 1890] based his ‘Pietà’ on a lithograph of a painting by Eugène Delacroix.
In fact, it is more a variation on the original work than a copy. From Delacroix, Van Gogh took the theme of the Virgin Mary mourning the dead Christ, as well as the composition. He added his own colour and personal signature.The painting resulted from an accident. Van Gogh wrote, ‘that lithograph of Delacroix, the Pietà, with other sheets had fallen into some oil and paint and got spoiled. I was sad about it – then in the meantime I occupied myself painting it, and you’ll see it one day.’ The lithograph has survived, complete with stain. Via Van Gogh Museum.
