Girl Leaning on a Ledge, Artist Unknown
Oil on canvas. This painting, catalogued as being by an unknown artist, appears to be an exact copy of part of Two Women at a Window, painted around 1655 by Spanish artist Bartolome EstebanMurillo (1617-1682). Murillo was the leading painter in Seville in the later 17th century. He remained one of the most admired and popular of all European artists in the 18th and early 19th centuries. In the 1670s, Murillo found patrons in Cadiz, which was rising in importance as a centre of commerce and trade. He was working on a series of paintings for the Capuchins of Cadiz when he died in 1682. More research needs to be done around Girl Leaning on a Ledge, particularly to establish whether or not it was painted by Murillo himself

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing painting titled "Girl Leaning on a Ledge" by an unknown artist. The artwork, believed to be an exact replica of part of Bartolome Esteban Murillo's masterpiece "Two Women at a Window" exudes timeless beauty and elegance. Murillo, a renowned Spanish painter from the 17th century, was highly esteemed in his time and continued to captivate audiences well into the following centuries. The mysterious girl depicted in this painting leans gracefully against a ledge, her delicate blouse adorned with a charming bow and ribbon. Standing near an open window, she gazes out into the world with curiosity and wonder. Her attire combines shades of brown, white, and red, creating a harmonious color palette that enhances her natural allure. With its meticulous brushstrokes and attention to detail, this artwork captures the essence of Murillo's style. However, further research is needed to ascertain whether it was indeed painted by the master himself or if it is the work of another talented artist inspired by his genius. As we admire this enchanting portrait frozen in time through this print from Royal Cornwall Museum collection, we are transported back to an era where artistry flourished and emotions were immortalized on canvas.
