Conference Les Figures féminines aux Pays-Bas vers 1500
Présentation
Dymphne, Marguerite and the others: discover the female figures of the 15th century during a lecture by Magali Briat-Philippe at the Monastère Royal de Brou!
Echoing the theme of the exhibition, which evokes Saint Dymphne's desire for emancipation, immerse yourself in the society of the 15th and 16th centuries, where being a woman was particularly complex...
The extraordinary altarpiece painted by Gossen va der Weyden in Antwerp in 1505 tells the story of Dymphne, who fled an incestuous father. The Irish princess is representative of the many virgin martyrs omnipresent in Netherlandish art around 1500: young, beautiful, rich and intelligent, they are tested to the death by diabolical tyrants. Although ancient, these legends still bear witness to various forms of female emancipation.
A lecture by Magali Briat-Philippe, Chief Curator of the Musée du Monastère Royal de Brou.
As part of the exhibition Fous de Dymphne, étonnantes histoires d'une peinture flamande, presented from April 5 to June 22, 2025.
