Angel Or Demon
註釋Diego de Velázquez's Lady with a Fan has been called the painting that best represents both the artist and the Spain of his era. Its subject embodies the polarities long identified with the nature of womankind: the angelic and the demonic. Furthermore, the mysterious subject may represent Angela, the multifaceted protagonist of La Dama Duende, a contemporaneous play by Calderón de la Barca. That the sitter may have been Marie De Rohan, a French duchess known to have been painted by Velázquez, adds another dimension to speculations concerning the subject of Lady with a Fan.
