Raphael Morghen, a renowned artist of the 18th and 19th centuries, left an indelible mark on the art world with his exquisite creations. One of his notable works is "The Last Supper, " a masterpiece that showcases Morghen's exceptional talent alongside Teodoro Matteini. In this iconic piece, Morghen captures the profound emotions and intricate details of this biblical scene. Another captivating artwork by Morghen is "The Holy Family, " where he portrays the Christ child peacefully asleep in the Virgin Mary's lap. Created in 1786, this painting radiates serenity and tenderness through its delicate brushstrokes. Morghen's artistic prowess extends to his portrayal of Madonna embracing her sleeping child in another breathtaking piece from 1797. The love between mother and son emanates from every stroke, evoking a sense of warmth and tranquility. In addition to religious themes, Morghen also ventured into portraiture with remarkable skill. His portrait titled "Lady Hamilton as the Comic Muse" depicts Emma Hamilton embodying Thalia, one of Greek mythology's nine muses who represents comedy. This work exemplifies Morghen's ability to capture not only physical beauty but also the essence of his subjects' personalities. Morghen collaborated with Pietro Ermini on several occasions, including their joint creation called "Poetry. " This enchanting depiction features a woman adorned with a laurel crown symbolizing poetic achievement—a testament to both artists' mastery over their craft. Among Morghen's other notable works are "Madonna della Seggiola" (1793), which showcases maternal love at its purest form; "La Madonna del Latte" (1815), capturing tender moments between mother and child; and portraits like Dona Isabel de Requesens y Enriques de Cardona-Anglesola—an elegant representation showcasing his versatility as an artist.
