Resumo(s)
A relação entre a palavra e a imagem nas artes é antiga e conhecida, tanto, aliás, como a plasticidade de Metamorphoses de Ovídio, obra basilar de inúmeras obras de arte em diferentes media, ao longo de vinte séculos. Por isso, apresenta-se, de início, uma contextualização de conceitos como ekphrasis ou mimesis e da expressão ut pictura poesis de Horácio.
O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar sete quadros que J. W. Waterhouse produziu entre 1892 e 1909, cuja representação se relaciona com a obra magistral de Ovídio. As relações estabelecidas entre os quadros de Waterhouse e os episódios de Metamorphoses partem do pressuposto de que o pintor conhecia o texto das Metamorphoses e o utilizou como referência para a construção das suas telas.
Cada quadro apresenta, ainda, um registo do seu percurso e uma contextualização relativa à crítica e à aquisição de cada obra, para que seja possível uma análise o mais completa possível.
The connection between word and image in the Arts it comes from ancient times and is widely recognised, as well as the plasticity of Ovid’s Metamorphoses. This work has been the basis of countless works of art in different media over twenty centuries. For this reason, a contextualization of concepts, such as ekphrasis or mimesis and Horace’s ut pictura poesis, is presented in the beginning of this research. The purpose of this work is to analyse seven pictures that J. W. Waterhouse produced between 1892 and 1909, whose representation is related to Ovid’s masterpiece: Metamorphoses. The relationships established between Waterhouse’s paintings and the Metamorphoses’s episodes has its origin in the assumption that the painter knew the text of Ovid and used it as a reference to the elaboration of its canvas. Each painting also presents a synopsis of its course and a contextualisation regarding the criticism and the acquisition of each work, so that a full analysis can be possible.
