Gustave Moreau. Helen on the Ramparts
of Troy. 1885.
"She stands out against a sinister horizon,
drenched in blood, and clad in a dress encrusted with gems like a shrine.
Her eyes are wide-open in a cataleptic stare. At her feet lie piles of
corpses. She is like an evil goddess who poisons all that approach her."
(J.-K. Huysmans) |
