Abstract
This essay is a product of an investigation in the field of the theory and history of art and is concentrated on the analysis of the unpublished painting Scene of a Bedroom (c.1985-86) by the famed Chilean painter Adolfo Couve Rioseco (1940-1998). The artwork came to light in 2021, and its study not only permits engagement with problems of authorship, technique, and pictorial gestures, but also comments on the domestic spaces and familial relationships of the author. Above all, it permits a deepening of his visual affiliations; in this particular case, his interest in oils such as Rembrandt van Rijn’s “Jeremiah Lamenting the Destruction of Jerusalem” (1630), Paul Cézanne’s “Boy in a Red Waistcoat” (c.1889-90), and the still lives of Italian Giorgio Morandi, from which Couve likely constructed the thus-far unstudied painting which is submitted to scrutiny here.
