オランダに生まれ、フランスで活動したシェフェールは、ロマン主義を代表する画家の一人です。ドラクロワの名高い《キオス島の虐殺》（1824年）のように、この作品も、ロマン主義時代の芸術家たちの関心を惹き付けた、オスマン・トルコ帝国からのギリシャの独立戦争（1821-30年）を題材としています。民族衣装に身を包んだ乙女たちは戦火を逃れて洞窟に身を隠し、岩壁に掛けられたイコン（聖画像）に向かって祈りを捧げています。（出典: 展示室作品解説パネル）

A native of Holland, Ary Scheffer was a representative Romantic painter active in nineteenth-century France. The work takes its theme from the Greek War of Independence against the Ottoman Empire (1821-1830), a favorite subject of artists in the Romantic Period. Eugène Delacroix’s masterpiece The Massacre at Chios (1824) is another example. Greek maidens in native dress are shown hiding in a cave from the battle outside, praying to an icon fixed to the rock wall. (Source: Gallery label, October 2016)
