Gender roles, deeply rooted in our society, are reflected in the visual arts. This paper examines these roles in Spanish Golden Age painting, focusing on Magdalena Ventura with her Husband and Son by José de Ribera. This work challenges 17th-century ideals of femininity by depicting a woman with a beard, questioning social and cultural norms. The analysis of this work explores the representation of femininity and beauty standards of the time, highlighting its contemporary relevance. Additionally, the possible medical diagnosis of her underlying condition is investigated. This work underscores how art can challenge social norms, inviting reflection on gender identity and diversity [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): |
Los roles de género, arraigados en nuestra sociedad, se reflejan en las artes plásticas. Este artículo analiza estos roles en la pintura del Siglo de Oro español, enfocándose en Magdalena Ventura con su esposo e hijo, de José de Ribera. Esta obra desafía los ideales de feminidad del siglo XVII al retratar a una mujer con barba, cuestionando normas sociales y culturales. El análisis de esta obra explora la representación de la feminidad y los estándares de belleza de la época, destacando su relevancia contemporánea. Además, se investiga el posible diagnóstico médico de su condición subyacente. Esta obra subraya cómo el arte puede cuestionar normas sociales, invitando a reflexionar sobre la identidad de género y la diversidad. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
