Dear readers and subscribers, I am thrilled to share that this week has been an exhilarating journey as I delved deeply into the captivating realms of American, French, and Russian poetry, discovering fascinating interconnections among our diverse cultural tapestries. Today, I added the mesmerizing painting “Au crépuscule” by the esteemed French artist Paul Émile Chabas. This addition was inspired by the profound poem В сумерках (At Twilight) penned by the talented Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva. This soul-stirring poem beautifully captures the essence of the painting housed in the Luxembourg Museum.
Paul Émile Chabas (1869 – 1937) stands as a celebrated French painter, renowned for his exquisite depictions of nude young women in serene natural settings. Regarded as one of Europe’s foremost painters of nudes, Chabas made his debut at the Salon in 1890, achieving acclaim by clinching the Prix National at the 1899 Paris Salon with his mesmerizing masterpiece, “Joyeux Ébats.” Notably, he was bestowed with a gold medal at the Exposition Universelle of 1900 and received the prestigious Médaille d’honneur in 1912. However, it was his iconic painting, “Matinée de Septembre” (September Morn) from 1912, that ignited a “succès de scandale” in the United States in May 1913.
In sharing these poetic treasures with you, I hope to kindle a love for poetry in diverse languages and to celebrate the incredible richness of world literature. Thank you for joining me on this enriching literary journey.
I hope you’ll find something to enjoy.
