Giulia Santoro

The Eternal Feminine: Divines, Saints, and Heroines in Art

This is a painting of an allegorical nature, featuring a female figure seated on fantastical architectural ornamentation (very characteristic of Baroque/decorative taste).
The figure holds a blue shield with gold fleurs-de-lis, which is key.
That shield with fleurs-de-lis is directly associated with the French monarchy (the Bourbons).

Se trata de una pintura de carácter alegórico, con una figura femenina sentada sobre una ornamentación arquitectónica fantástica (muy propia del gusto barroco/decorativo).
La figura sostiene un escudo azul con flores de lis doradas, lo que es clave.
Ese escudo con flores de lis está directamente asociado a la monarquía francesa (los Borbones).
