THE FORTUNE TELLER Old Woman Telling Future by Georges de la Tour Color Print

Description: THE FORTUNE TELLER Old Woman Telling Future by Georges de la Tour Color Print About: "The painting catches a moment in which a young man of some wealth is having his fortune told by the old woman at right; she takes the coin from his hand, not only in payment, but as part of the ritual in which she will cross his hand with it. Most or all of the women portrayed are Romani people, and, furthering the stereotype of the time, they are depicted as thieves. As the young man is engrossed in the fortune-telling—an act which, if discovered, would have repercussions for both him and the Romani people—the leftmost woman is stealing the coin purse from his pocket, while her companion in profile has a hand ready to receive the loot. The pale-faced girl on the boy's left is less clearly Romani, but is also in on the act as she cuts a medal worn by the boy from its chain. The figures in the painting are close together, as if in a play, and the composition may have been influenced by a theatrical scene." This is a print taken from a vintage art book. Measures 11 x 10" inches. The print may/may not have an image/text on the back. Comes unframed. "Print" is a general term for an image made using a plate (wood, metal, stone, etc.) that has been engraved and inked, and then transferred onto paper using a press.
