Fontainebleau school - Gabrielle d'Estrées and her sister (late 16th century)


A painting that oozes Italian Cinquecento; the ancient medieval castle of Fontainbleau was to become a sumptuous and modern resident so Francesco I called workers mainly from Italy to make his dream come true.
A particular picture, perhaps full of symbols, perhaps which alludes to a wedding to be celebrated, perhaps a wish for prosperity.
Many perhaps, which feed mystery and magic.
