Description
English: Inspired by Géricault, French 19th century artists took an interest in anatomical studies of dead humans and animals. Many of these paintings combine scientific observation with a horrified relish for the morbid subject matter. The fascination for anatomy, death and decay was also noticed in other forms of contemporary culture. The painting is by one of the artists in Géricault’s circle who embraced this theme.
Svenska: I Géricaults efterföljd utvecklades i Frankrike under 1800-talet ett intresse för anatomiska studier av döda människor och djur. I många av dessa målningar kombinerades en vetenskaplig blick med en skräckblandad förtjusning inför de morbida motiven. Intresset för anatomi, död och förruttnelse gav sig också till känna på flera håll i den samtida kulturen. Den här målningen är utförd av en av de konstnärer i Géricaults krets som anslöt sig till denna typ motiv.
