Inside the Louvre, a photo from Ile-de-France, North

Photographer's Note

The atmosphere of Louvre Museum in one of its rooms. In foreground you can see famous masterpiece "The Clubfoot" by Jusepe de Ribera.

Ribera's The Clubfoot depicts a young beggar from the streets of Naples. He poses proudly, grinning at the viewer with his crutch slung over one shoulder, like a rifle. The young boy holds a piece of paper which reads in Latin: "Give me alms for the love of God. "

The Clubfoot evidences both a general 17th century interest in "low-life" subjects (thanks to Dutch and Flemish genre pictures and Caravaggio's paintings) and an interest in the "freakish": dwarves, cripples, jesters, and so forth, as well as Ribera's own personal interest in the bizarre.

Bonjour, cher ami Ovidiu,
Très bonne présentation d'une salle du Louvre, la posture des visiteurs est parfaitement mise en valeur. Chacun prend une pose particulière en admirant (ou non) des toiles de maître.
Très bonne observation, une fois encore.
Amitiés.
Philippe
