Commentary | Reference to the dialogue between Maritornes and the priest about chivalry books; Maritornes relates this romantic scene.
Vierge's style is absolutely masterly; detailed scene in keeping with 19th century romantic tradition. Notice the perfect use of light and shadow, halftones and shading. Usual in Vierge's illustrations, some element in black creates a worth noting contrast. His short and fine drawing lines imitate etching. |
