The Young Courtesan

The Ebony Courtesan's picture of the week is, the Young Courtesan by Xavier Sigalon.It is one of the Ebony Courtesan's favourite works of art; enchanting and sublime, sensuous and evocative. The model is a dashing young courtesan with a magnificent head of hair and how lovely too that she is surrounded by devoted suitors;-)"Xavier Sigalon, French painter born at Uzes ( Gard ) towards the close of 1788 was one of the few leaders of the romantic movement who cared for treatment of form rather than of colour". The Ebony Courtesan appreciates both form and colour as in the beautiful in the sublime.

She comes - the spirit of the dance And but for those large, eloquent eyesWhere passion speaks with every glance,She'd seen a wanderer from the skies.So light that, gazing breathless there,Lest the celestial dream should go,You'd think the music in the air,Waved the fair visions to and fro!Frances.

On A Chinese Vase.
2007-03-02 17:25:00
Lovely as on the boughs of springBeneath the fallen suns of Ming,There bloom the flowers of the plumWhere bloomless autum shall not comeThat came for all the years of Ming.And here the flower-white herons peerUnmoving on a waveless meer;And ever, past the green bambo,The halcyon flies toward the blueFrom water where the herons peer.Enchanted realm of porcelainWhereon the sunken suns remain,Wherein the perished blossoms bloom!An ancient spring defers its doomWithin this land of porcelain.Clark Aston Smith.Kathleen GlydeInternational Courtesan.Subscribe to The Black Courtesan.
