About the artwork:

Francesco Hayez’s The Kiss, distills Italian Romanticism into a single breath-holding farewell. In a dim medieval arcade, a cloaked young man presses a passionate kiss on his lover while his foot, already poised on the step, signals an urgent departure; a hidden dagger glints at his side, hinting at political danger. The woman’s pale blue gown and the man’s crimson tights subtly echo the colors of France and Italy, turning private passion into an allegory of the Risorgimento alliance against Austrian rule. Hayez bathes the couple in theatrical chiaroscuro, heightening both tenderness and suspense: the softness of her tilt contrasts with his forward momentum, capturing the precarious balance between love and duty. In this single embrace, the painter celebrates intimacy as an act of courage and casts the lovers’ impending separation as a metaphor for a nation on the brink of unification.
