Regnault initially represented this Italian model as an African woman, but later enlarged his canvas at the bottom and right and transformed it into a representation of the biblical temptress Salome. Hair ruffled, clothes in disarray, she has just danced for her stepfather Herod, governor of Judea. The platter and knife allude to her reward: the severed head of John the Baptist.

Salome (1870). By Henri Regnault (French, 1843-1871)
160 x 102.9 cm. Oil on canvas, 160 x 102.9 cm.

In Irish mythology, Éire , daughter of Delbáeth and Ernmas of the Tuatha Dé Danann, was the eponymous matron goddess of Ireland.
The English name for Ireland comes from the name Ériu and the Germanic (Old Norse or Old English) word land.

Since Ériu is represented as goddess of Ireland, she is often interpreted as a modern-day personification of Ireland, although since the name Ériu is the Old Irish form of the word Ireland, her modern name is often modified to Éire or Erin to suit a modern form.

The Harp of Erin. By Thomas Buchanan Read (American, 1822-1872). Oil on canvas, 87.3 cm x 106.8 cm.

Despite his training as an academic painter, Frederic Leiahton championed the ideas of Aestheticism which believed in an "art for art's sake,' independent of narrative, moral connotations and realistic detail, In Flaming June, Leighton depicts a sleeping female figure, curled up under a cascade of orange drapery This type of subject was used by Leightor frequently as an invitation for introspection, a figural representation of the unconscious mind. Considerec as an outdated artwork in the 1970s. Luis A. Ferré acquired the work despite being advised not to--his decision would ultimately result in a superb addition to his museum's British art collection.

Flaming June (1895). By Frederic Leighton, (English, 1830-1896). Oil on canvas, 120 cm x 119.1 cm.
