{"product_id":"semiramide-henri-fantin-latour","title":"Semiramide - Henri Fantin-Latour","description":"\u003cp\u003eA delicate lithograph by Henri Fantin-Latour, inspired by Rossini's opera, capturing a mythological scene with atmospheric light and shadow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lithograph by Henri Fantin-Latour depicts the legendary Queen Semiramis, a subject drawn from the operatic tradition, specifically the work of Gioachino Rossini. The artist, known for his technical mastery of the lithographic medium, employs a soft, atmospheric application of ink to create a dreamlike quality. The composition features the central figure of the queen, standing in a state of quiet contemplation, flanked by attendants who assist with her toilette. The scene is rendered with a focus on light and shadow, where the figures emerge from a hazy, indistinct background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFantin-Latour was deeply interested in the intersection of music and visual art, often creating works inspired by the compositions of Wagner, Berlioz, and Rossini. The inclusion of a musical stave at the top of the print, featuring a melody from Rossini's opera, confirms this thematic connection. The print demonstrates the artist's ability to translate the emotional weight of musical scores into a visual language of texture and tone. The figures are not defined by rigid outlines, but rather by the accumulation of delicate marks that suggest form and volume through subtle gradations of grey and black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specific impression includes a dedication, reflecting the artist's engagement with the cultural circles of late nineteenth-century France. The work captures the Symbolist interest in myth, memory, and the evocative power of the unseen. By choosing a subject from classical antiquity, Fantin-Latour explores themes of majesty and domesticity, filtered through a lens of romantic idealism. The print serves as an example of the artist's late-career focus on lithography, a medium he used to explore the boundaries between reality and imagination, providing a glimpse into the aesthetic concerns of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/sv\/products\/poster-for-revue-bimestrielle-johan-thorn-prikker\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePoster for Revue Bimestrielle - Johan Thorn Prikker — Jan Thorn Prikker\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/sv\/products\/and-he-had-in-his-right-hand-seven-stars-and-out-of-his-mouth-went-a-sharp-two-edged-sword-odilon-redon\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAnd He Had in His Right Hand Seven Stars; and Out of His Mouth Went a Sharp Two-Edged Sword - Odilon Redon — Odilon Redon\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henri Fantin-Latour","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58805631811919,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58805657993551,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58805658026319,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58805658059087,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58805658091855,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58805658124623,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58805658157391,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58805658190159,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58805658222927,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58805658255695,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58805658288463,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58805658321231,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Semiramide_Poster_CompositorV1_1789651827183.jpg?v=1789652036","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/sv\/products\/semiramide-henri-fantin-latour","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
