"Malvine, Dying in the Arms of Fingal" is a painting by the French Neoclassical artist Anne-Louis Girodet. The artwork depicts a scene from the epic poem "Ossian" by James Macpherson. In this scene, the dying Malvine is cradled by Fingal, her lover. The painting utilizes soft colors and chiaroscuro to depict the emotional weight of the moment, and an ethereal light symbolizes the transition to the afterlife. The work showcases Girodet's talent for capturing dramatic and emotional themes within a classical style.
