- Description
- Info
The torso sculpted in the foreground, accompanied by the snake in a relationship between desire and forbidden fueled by a dramatic chiaroscuro, offers itself as an archetype of classical strength and beauty, recalling the Renaissance ideal of the perfect body. The crown placed on the top becomes an emblem of power and domination, while the frame fits the body as if to immobilize it in heterosex.
The golden serpent, a symbol of temptation and wisdom, wraps around the figure, evoking the biblical myth of Adam and Eve and the Baroque iconographies where the reptile represents both sin and knowledge, here, it becomes a metaphor for desire and vulnerability.
