Original Narrative: GENEVIEVE BRABANT : This picture  of " Genevieve of Brabant," painted in 1845, was, we have heard, a gift from the painter to Prince Albert, as a birth-day present to her Majesty.  The subject is taken from an old Flemish legend, as popular in that country as the " Babes in the Wood," or any other, is in our own.  Genevieve, driven from her home, through a false accusation, while her husband, the Count of Brabant, is engaged in the Crusades, is forced to take refuge, with her infant, in a cavern, where a hind daily ministers to their sustenance.  She is represented in the picture at the entrance of the grotto, which opens towards a forest ; the child is resting in her lap, the hind at her feet.  The cavern is illumined by the brightness of day, and the painter, in a happy mood, has concentrated the rays of light chiefly upon the child's face.  By this his idea is sufficiently illustrated.  Though Genevieve's head is shaded, she does not look up painfully, nor does she appear as suffering from mental disquietude : her thoughts are with her child, who, blessed with health and infantine beauty, is' her comfort and joy in these dark hours of her history. The picture is in the collection at Windsor. Martin2001 Satisfaction Guaranteed Policy! Any print purchased from me may be returned for any (or no) reason for a full refund including all postage.
