SHORT SUMMARY
The Oval Portrait by Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar Allan Poe, a notable American author, wrote this gothic, harrowing story. The connection between art and life is the central theme of this text. As indicated by the text, the storyteller and his valet, Pedro, showed up in the evening at an abandoned chateau in the Apennines of central Italy. The storyteller was seriously wounded. Since it was freezing cold outside, the valet hauled the narrator into the château. He drove the storyteller to one of the estate's smallest chambers.
The room's decor was in a state of deterioration. There were thrown-about artworks, embroidery, and awards. The valet comforted the storyteller and, surprisingly, shut the room's screens. He likewise lit a candelabrum for the narrator.
While his worker, Pedro, dozed, the storyteller started perusing a book regarding artwork. At the point when the storyteller moved the candelabrum, he found a wonderful woman's oval-shaped painting. He was shocked to see such an amazing picture of a beloved bird lady. He felt tricked after seeing such lovely oval-formed fine art. He was unable to accept what he was seeing.
While taking a gander at that wonderful work of art, he shut and closed his eyes a few times. His curiosity about the painting was aroused. He started perusing the canvas's origin story. As indicated by painting history, the lady in the oval picture was the spouse of an enthusiastic painter who valued his occupation above all else.
He had a wish to paint his exquisite spouse's fine art one day. His significant other assented and modelled for him while she sat in the seat. The painter turned out to be totally engaged in his undertaking. He chipped away at the picture for a very long time. To keep away from interruption, he even detained himself and his significant other in the chateau's torrent. His wife started to weaken. She didn't inform her husband regarding her throbbing pain.
The painter didn't ask about her well-being. He kept painting his wife's fading colour. At last, after he completed his craftsmanship and happily showed it to his wife, he found her dead on the chair.
