Further details

JACQUES STELLA, STUDY OF THE JUDGEMENT OF PÂRIS, BLACK CHALK, PEN AND BROWN INK, BROWN WASH, HEIGHTENED WITH WHITE ON BROWN PAPER

This highly accomplished and already almost painterly study is preparatory to the painting of The Judgement of Pâris, an oil on canvas dating from the 1650s, and now in Hartford, Wadworth Atheneum (inv. 1957-445; Jacques Stella (1596-1657), cat. exp. Lyon, musée des beaux-arts, Toulouse, musée des Augustins, no. 110, ill). This painting is an exception in Jacques Stella's oeuvre, and in 2006 Jacques Thuillier noted that ‘the freedom of the construction, the multiplicity of groups, the complex play of light, the quality of the nudes, suddenly give us a glimpse of a new painter’ (J. Thuillier, Jacques Stella, Paris, 2006, p. 160). A quicker drawing - which sketches the entire composition, whereas the present sheet studies only the group of three Graces looked at by Pâris - is kept at the Biblioteca Nacional in Madrid (ibid., p. 188, fig. IX).
