Alexandre Cabanel's "Pandora," painted in 1873, captures Christina Nilsson as Pandora—the Greek mythological figure who opened a forbidden box unleashing chaos and suffering upon humanity—a poignant depiction reflecting the anxieties of its time. Commissioned for William T. Walters, this artwork exemplifies Romantic idealism with meticulous detail and luminous execution.
