The intercepted letter. Federico Andreotti (Italian, 1847-1930). Oil on canvas.Andreotti combined his technical precision, a skill honed during his anatomy classes, with the new theories on colour and texture that were being explored by the Impressionists. Here he depicts a narrative in which the lady has been writing, perhaps to a lover, and the man interrupts and intercepts the letter. As he reads it, one can see his disapproval and the lady’s despair. -- source link
