Saskia as Flora-beloved wife
This image shows Saskia, beloved wife of Rembrandt van Rijn in Harmenszoona Flory costumes. The picture is very warm and intimate, you can see in him a strong feeling of giving away the mans wife. This work came from Rembrandt painted Rhine in the year one thousand six hundred thirty-fourth. Currently at the in St. Petersburg (Russia). Women dress and gestures suggest that she is pregnant, could possibly be so because in that year Saskia Rembrandt son was born, unfortunately, the child does not survive even two months (as most of his children with Saskia). The artist painted this work with great attention to detail, especially when it comes to the wife of golden dresses and flowers in her hair and on his hand. Background to the worlds Rembrandt is dark, entering the black contrasts harmoniously with the feminine form of course. Painted two versions of this image a little bit different, but both painted with the same affection and love that surrounded them to the premature death of his wife.
