The Fountain of Vaucluse
Artist: Thomas Cole (American, 1801–1848)
Date: 1841
Medium: Oil on canvas
Collection: Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, TX, United States
Description
Vaucluse, in the southern French region of Provence, was the final home of the Italian poet Petrarch, one of the first great Renaissance writers. In 1841, on his second European tour, Thomas Cole memorialized Petrarch's home in this grandiose canvas, worked up in Rome from sketches done on-site. Once in the studio, he exaggerated the scale of the cliffs in this scene to magnify the drama, and he reconstructed Petrarch's castle, which in actuality lay in ruins. Although he founded the Hudson River school, the group of loosely affiliated American artists who took inspiration from the natural landscapes outside of the northeastern urban centers, Cole also painted several European scenes such as this one.

Oedipus and Colonus
Artist: Jean-Antoine-Théodore Giroust (French, 1753–1817)
Date: 1788
Medium: Oil on canvas
Collection: Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, Texas, United States
Description
This painting, by the French artist Jean Antoine Théodore Giroust, was inspired by the life of Oedipus, perhaps one of the unluckiest figures of ancient Greek myth. Oedipus is represented in the painting by the shirtless man with his legs draped in red cloth, seen sitting on a carved stone. He is surrounded by his daughters: Antigone and Ismene. As for the man wearing a helmet on the left side of the painting, he is Polynices - one of Oedipus’ sons.
