La Fugitive 1869

"La Fugitive" is an oil painting by French artist Charles-Philippe Lariviere, completed in 1869. The painting depicts a young woman, her face illuminated by a soft light, holding a rosary, being guided by a monk. A backdrop of a distant town and a stormy sky evokes a sense of drama and uncertainty. The image likely represents a moment of flight, perhaps a woman seeking refuge or a moment of devotion. The painting's realism and emotional depth showcase Lariviere's talent for capturing the nuances of human emotion and the complexities of human experience.
