Description |
English: Angelica Kauffmann (often Kauffman) spent only 15 years in England, but made a significant impact on the 18th-century London art scene, becoming one of only two female Founder Members of the Royal Academy and an all-time role model for women artists.
In Greek mythology, Hebe was the daughter of Zeus. She is often seen with her father in the guise of an eagle, often offering a cup to him, befitting her role as cup-bearer to the gods and goddesses of Mount Olympus. In Kauffmann's etching, she is pouring wine or nectar into a shell for him to enjoy. Hebe is the goddess of youth; as well as signifying Zeus, the eagle is an important related attribute, as in ancient times it was widely believed that the eagle, like the phoenix, could renew itself into a youthful state. Kauffmann's style stresses purity, simplicity and linearity, together with a perfect, unblemished profile. All these, and of course the theme, are key components of the fashionable Neo-classical aesthetic which became dominant in the late 18th century. But whereas David would often stress themes of courage, violence and death, Kauffmann significantly makes a heroine out of a dutiful daughter. |
