The Apparition | Gustave Moreau | 1876
Taxes included
"The Apparition" by Gustave Moreau, painted around 1876, is a dramatic and mystical artwork. It portrays the biblical story of Salome, who is depicted in an opulent and exotic costume, adorned with jewels and a flowing robe. She stands in an elaborately decorated interior, pointing towards a radiant apparition of John the Baptist's severed head, which floats in the air, encircled by a halo of light. The scene is bathed in a mystical glow, with intricate architectural details and rich, dark colours adding to the eerie and otherworldly atmosphere. A guard holding a sword stands to the right, emphasizing the intensity and gravity of the moment.
