Framed Print of The Meeting of Orestes and Hermione, c. 1800. Creator: Anne-Louis Girodet de Roucy-Trioson (French
The Meeting of Orestes and Hermione, c. 1800. When Jacques-Louis David was approached to work on a new edition of Jean Racines plays, the great Neoclassical artist passed the task to his pupil Girodet, who excelled at illustrating literature. This highly refined drawing depicts a scene from Racines Andromaque, a complex tale of unrequited love and political treachery. Cleone introduces the love-blind Orestes to Hermione, who exploits his affection to make him do her bidding. Girodet skillfully contrasts Orestess eagerness and Hermiones calculating character. With folded arms, she turns away, standing like a statue between the columns of a cool marble interior. Yet Hermiones sly, backward glance alerts the viewer of her cunning manipulation, which eventually drives Orestes mad.
