Resumo: | The sexuality of the elder has a history of negligence, seen as a taboo, both by society and by the individual himself, contributing to maintain the oppressive cultural standards related to the theme of sexuality related to aging. In the great majority of paintings, the elder individual is presented as an asexual character. The representation of the elder in paintings is usually shown in the following contexts: domestic (“St Joseph, The carpenter” – George de La Tour, 1642; “The Paralytic” – Jean Baptiste Greuze, 1763) and in the decadence of health (“Old man in sorrow” – Van Gogh, 1890; “The old guitarist” – Picasso, 1903). On the few paintings that retract the sexuality of the elder, we can see a clear prominence of the male gender (“Susana and the elders” – Artemisia Gentileschi, 1610; “Elderly nude in the sun” – Mariano Fortuny, 1871). Sexuality of the elder woman is little referred to, being predominantly portrayed in her domestic role. When sexuality is shown it is in the context of prostitution, as in the work “The Salon I”, of Otto Dix, 1921. Between painters of the 20th century, there are self portraits in which artists of both genders paint themselves naked in advanced age, showing a tendency in changing the current paradigm: “Painter working, Reflection” – Lucian Freud, 1993 that portrayed himself at the age of 70; and “Self Portrait” – Alice Neel, 1980, at the age of 80. |

Na grande maioria das pinturas , o indivíduo mais velho é apresentado como um personagem assexual. A representação da pessoa idosa em pinturas é geralmente mostrada nos seguintes contextos: doméstico (“St Joseph, carpinteiro” - George de la Tour, 1642 ; “O Paralítico” - Jean Baptiste Greuze, 1763) e na decadência da saúde (“Velho na tristeza” - Van Gogh, 1890; “O velho guitarrista” – Picasso, 1903). Nas poucas pinturas que expõem a sexualidade do idoso, podemos ver uma clara predominência do sexo masculino (“Susana e os anciãos” - Artemisia Gentileschi, 1610; “Idoso nu ao sol” - Mariano Fortuny, 1871). A sexualidade da mulher mais velha é pouco referida, sendo a mulher predominantemente retratada em seu papel doméstico. Quando a sexualidade é mostrada é no contexto da prostituição, como na obra “O Salão I”, de Otto Dix, 1921. Entre os pintores do século 20, há autoretratos em que os artistas de ambos os sexos se pintam nus em idade avançada, mostrando uma tendência na mudança do paradigma atual: “Pintor de trabalho, Reflexão” - Lucian Freud, 1993, que retratou a si mesmo com a idade de 70 anos; e “Auto-retrato” - Alice Neel, 1980, aos 80 anos de idade.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-12-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/1765610.23925/2176-901X.2013v16iEspecial15p227-242Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 16 (2013): Número Especial 15 - Eroticism/Sexuality and Old Age; 227-2422176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPenghttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/17656/13145Duarte, Josiane AparecidaOliveira, Bruna Miclos deFerreira, Hugo Henrique AlvesBezerra, Armando José ChinaVianna, Lucy GomesBezerra, Alexandre Sérgio de Araújoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-11-29T00:33:13Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/17656Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2019-11-29T00:33:13Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false |

description |
The sexuality of the elder has a history of negligence, seen as a taboo, both by society and by the individual himself, contributing to maintain the oppressive cultural standards related to the theme of sexuality related to aging. In the great majority of paintings, the elder individual is presented as an asexual character. The representation of the elder in paintings is usually shown in the following contexts: domestic (“St Joseph, The carpenter” – George de La Tour, 1642; “The Paralytic” – Jean Baptiste Greuze, 1763) and in the decadence of health (“Old man in sorrow” – Van Gogh, 1890; “The old guitarist” – Picasso, 1903). On the few paintings that retract the sexuality of the elder, we can see a clear prominence of the male gender (“Susana and the elders” – Artemisia Gentileschi, 1610; “Elderly nude in the sun” – Mariano Fortuny, 1871). Sexuality of the elder woman is little referred to, being predominantly portrayed in her domestic role. When sexuality is shown it is in the context of prostitution, as in the work “The Salon I”, of Otto Dix, 1921. Between painters of the 20th century, there are self portraits in which artists of both genders paint themselves naked in advanced age, showing a tendency in changing the current paradigm: “Painter working, Reflection” – Lucian Freud, 1993 that portrayed himself at the age of 70; and “Self Portrait” – Alice Neel, 1980, at the age of 80. |
