The odalisque functions as a French fantasy inspired by.
He changed the theme of the mythological nude to an imaginary oriental one.
He chooses to emphasize her enchanted glow and the charm of her femininity, her curvy body, and round belly.
Seems rather calm and confident in her nudity, as a symbol of both sexuality and innocence.
Within an abstract setting, the painter depicts Virgin Mary, in white tones, seated on a throne with baby in her lap.
She is the perfect representation of the classic renaissance woman that symbolizes love, beauty, and fertility.
Like most Impressionist works, this artwork features an everyday scene: two female and two male subjects sharing a picnic in a forest.
This way he connects the idea of a divine woman with that of an ordinary woman.
