What does a gypsy woman mean?

Two meanings, one is the canvas oil painting created by Dutch painter frans hals, and the other is the superhero of American DC comics.

Gypsy woman (superhero):

Gypsy, whose real name is Cynthia Reynolds, was born in a small family in the suburbs. She was born a smart girl who likes barefoot, and barefoot has almost become a symbol of Cynthia. After giving birth to her younger brother, Cynthia's parents began to quarrel constantly, their feelings broke down and they often abused Cynthia.

So, at the age of 14, Cynthia, who found her magic, left home and came to Detroit, and began to contact JLA's Detroit era. After JLA's bold contact and participation, gypsy women were gradually attracted by him. After he participated in the destruction of the "master", the gypsy woman joined JLA and began his superhero career.

Gypsy woman (oil painting):

Gypsy Woman is an oil painting on canvas, which was created by Dutch painter Frans hals in the late 1920s (17). This painting is full of passionate brushstrokes, depicting a smart, lively and bohemian gypsy woman with black hair and a casual dress. Gypsy women open their collars and have a sly smile on their faces, as if they don't care about anything and are free.

The collocation of various colors in the picture, especially the color description of the subject, has reached the artistic realm of god and form. The colors in the painting naturally transition, showing the harmonious and simple spiritual essence. Beautiful composition, smooth brushwork and vivid characters reflect the genre painting style in figure painting.

Extended data:

The creative background of Gypsy Woman (oil painting);

The name "Gypsy" comes from15th century European names for a group of homeless people in a foreign land. At that time, because people didn't know much about this group of strangers, they thought they were from Egypt, so they were called "Egyptians". Later, the word "Egyptian" gradually became "Gypsy".

Gypsies are not engaged in agricultural production, they move around and rely on urban and rural residents to make a living. Traditionally, gypsy men sell livestock, domesticate animals, repair pottery and act as musicians, while gypsy women engage in divination, medicine, begging and performance. The unique lifestyle has given birth to the gypsies' versatile, good at singing and dancing, open and free personality characteristics.

Compared with women of other nationalities, gypsy girls are more enthusiastic and better at singing and dancing. Hals's Gypsy Woman depicts such a gypsy woman.

After the Dutch independence from 65438 to 0609, the economy developed rapidly. In the atmosphere of popularizing education and pursuing freedom of thought, a new national art has emerged in the Netherlands. It was different from the baroque luxury art style prevailing in Europe at that time. The Dutch people, especially the citizens, got rid of the religious bondage, gained national independence and had new artistic requirements.

I hope that works of art can show a broader real life, not a luxurious court life. In addition, the prosperity of industry, commerce and shipping has filled the Dutch with joy and pride in a better life. Therefore, in the17th century, Dutch portraits developed most prosperously, not only single portraits, but also collective portraits.

Among them, group portraits are an inevitable requirement for the development of Dutch capitalist industry and commerce, such as painting group portraits for gunmen's companies and management teams of charities. Hals is an important representative of this kind of portrait. hals's portrait is neither rigid nor customized to meet the requirements of the citizens, so the demand exceeds the supply.

Hals is a very outstanding painter with artistic personality. Hals is very observant, very good at capturing the instant emotions on characters' faces, and his expression is unrestrained. This portrait of a gypsy woman was created by hals between 1628 and 1630.
