Juda PINHAS (1727-1793)
Young sleeping woman with a snake Rectangular miniature, signed lower left. H. 10 - L. 10,4 cm Background: Our subject is inspired by the idealized portrait of Beauty, that of Cleopatra with the snake, a theme taken up under the Renaissance with that of Simonetta Vespucci and very much in vogue at the Court of Frederick the Great in the middle of the 18th century, of which PINHAS was appointed in 1775 as the official Court painter.
