EDITORS COMMENTS
La Mystique, esquisse de la composition d'ensemble" (Sketch of the Composition of the Mystic), created by Paul Albert Besnard around 1908, is a captivating oil on canvas painting that transports viewers to the heart of Parisian academic art during the 19th century. The painting, housed in the Musée d'Orsay, depicts a mystical scene set within the confines of a grand Parisian interior. At the center of the composition, a horseman, Saint George, is depicted on horseback, his steed rearing up as it prepares to trample a dragon beneath its hooves. Above, the Madonna and Child are enthroned in the heavens, surrounded by a multitude of angels and cherubs. The scene is bathed in a soft, ethereal light, with the warm colors of the interior contrasting beautifully with the cool blues and purples of the heavenly realm. The painting is rich in symbolism, reflecting the Christian heritage of France and the enduring influence of academic art. The horse and rider represent strength and valor, while the Madonna and Child symbolize the divine and the sacred. The clouds and angels in the background add a sense of otherworldliness and mystery, drawing the viewer into the painting and inviting them to contemplate the deeper meanings hidden within. The attention to detail in the painting is truly remarkable, from the intricately rendered folds of the horse's mane and tail, to the delicate features of the Madonna's face, to the ornate details of the church interior in the background. The use of oil on canvas adds a tactile quality to the painting, making it a true feast for the senses. La Mystique, esquisse de la composition d'ensemble is a testament to Paul Albert Besnard's mastery of academic art and his ability to create a work of art that is both beautiful and thought-provoking. It is a painting that continues to captivate and inspire viewers, offering a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of Paris and the enduring power of religious iconography.
