Description
English: The three Graces, some sort of goddesses of joy, were the daughters of Zeus and Eurynome in Greek mythology. They were a common artistic motif and Rubens—one of the Baroque’s most illustrious painters—returned to it several times. Here the Graces lift a basket of flowers in a combined effort. The artist doesn’t, however, concentrate on the mythological narrative but on rendering the shapes and movements of the female bodies. The naked skin appears warm and alive before the viewer’s eyes.
Svenska: De tre gracerna, ett slags glädjens gudinnor, var i den grekiska mytologin döttrar till Zeus och Eurynome. De var ett vanligt motiv i konsten och Rubens – en av barockens mest kända målare – återvände till det flera gånger. Här lyfter gracerna i en gemensam kraftansträngning en blomsterkorg. Konstnären koncentrerar sig dock inte på den mytologiska berättelsen utan på att framställa de kvinnliga kropparnas former och rörelser. Den nakna huden framstår som varm och levande inför betraktarens ögon.
