Salomé Painting

This painting has been inspired after a performance of Salomé at the Staatsoper in Berlin (Germany) (masterpiece of Strauss, book written by Oscar Wild). In this canvas we can see the importance of the moon (here represented under its different phases from full to more or less decreasing). Full moon is also shown with the image of a flower as a symbol of the woman whom beauty will cause the fall of the male protagonists of the story. We can see an evocation of a saber from which Salomé will gain the head of the Baptist (the shape of his head can be discovered at the right bottom of the canvas). Blood drops (yellow like gold or black like death) represent the crime and its cost. And throughout the canvas 7 yellow shapes are here to figure the famous ‘7 veils danse’ which are emblematic of the music of this masterpiece.
