Painting Description
"Cymon and Iphigenia" is a painting by the British artist Sir John Everett Millais, completed in 1884. The work is based on a tale from Giovanni Boccaccio's "The Decameron," which tells the story of Cymon, a young nobleman who is transformed from a brutish lout into an enlightened lover through his encounter with the beautiful Iphigenia. Millais, a prominent figure in the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, was known for his highly detailed and vividly colored works, and "Cymon and Iphigenia" is no exception.
The painting depicts the moment when Cymon, while wandering the countryside, comes upon the sleeping Iphigenia and is instantly captivated by her beauty. The scene is set in an idyllic landscape that reflects the romantic and classical themes popular among the Pre-Raphaelites. Millais's use of color, light, and composition in this piece underscores the transformative power of beauty and love, themes that resonate throughout his body of work.
"Cymon and Iphigenia" is notable for its departure from the medieval subjects that Millais and his Pre-Raphaelite colleagues often favored, instead embracing a narrative from the Italian Renaissance. The painting was well received in its time and continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its representation of the Pre-Raphaelite ideals of art and beauty. It remains an important example of Millais's later work and of the enduring influence of Pre-Raphaelite art on the Victorian cultural landscape.
