Wounded Man

Born at the beginning of the 19th century, Courbet stood in opposition to the academy. His paintings, regardless of the subject matter, always have the energy to paint something that is not amazing. Even if there is no complete plot, only a partial one, dramatization is rare. Like in this self-portrait, the sword and blood are clearly visible, obviously, he was injured. However, the expression on his face does not leave a trace of pain, his eyes are slightly closed and peaceful, his jaw is slightly raised, even with some arrogance. His upper body leaned against a large tree, his white shirt and skin one of the few bright colors in the painting. Who was he dueling with? For what reason? Is this moment a rest from the duel? Or was he already dying? What not know. It just felt incredibly graceful, and calm even though he was injured. I can even imagine a butterfly fluttering in the quiet forest and landing on his collar. It has been suggested that the artist's choice to portray himself in a wounded image may have stemmed from the trauma of the breakup of his 14-year relationship with Virginie Binet, and that it was narcissistic enough to portray his lost love as a hero who endured the pain. #Entertainment #Painting #self-portrait #curbey
