Family Discussion

Lot and his Daughters by the Italian Baroque Era painter Guido Reni (1575-1642). Interesting is here that Reni foregoes the normally so effective and popular nudeness and seduction scenery.

Childish Heroine

Judith. A really perfect painting by the Italian Mannerist painter Alessandro di Cristofano di Lorenzo del Bronzino Allori (1535-1607). She is cool and elegant and not at all impressed or frightened.

Astonished Nude

Susanna and the Elders by the Italian Baroque painter Guido Cagnacci (1601-1663). Despite her nakedness Susanna doesn't look scared more surprised what these old guys may want from her.

Penitent Mary Magdalene

Penitent Mary Magdalene by the Italian Baroque Era Painter Guido Reni (1575-1642). That’s how the church loved to see women, full of regret and ready to pay for their sins.

Samson Sleeping

Samson Delilah by the French painter Gustave Moreau (1826–1898).

Seductive Eve

Adam and Eve by the German Renaissance painter Lucas Cranach the Elder (1472-1533). Here Eve is downright feeding Adam and the snake seems her worthy companion.

Lots of Gestures

Potiphar’s Wife by the Italian Baroque painter Gian Francesco Barbieri (1591-1666). That seems all about gestures, I also didn’t know that she was already in bed.
