Eze Chimalio's painting The True Cost of Love and the Loveless. Snake Charming a Nipple on St. Mark's Day (111of 1V)
Evelyne Huet :
A Satyre with an air of Berlioz mixed with the Wolf of Tex Avery. The triumphant belly dancing of the Eden snake.. Very intense and well told. Why on Saint Mark's day..?
Eze Chimalio :
The above is a reworking of the a legend of Saint Mark’s day celebration.
The actual tradition originated in the 8th century, when a man of low social standing is said to have fallen in love with a noblewoman from Venice.
In order to win her father's approval, he became involved in a futile and distant war.
He was mortally wounded in battle, but managed to pluck a rose from a nearby rosebush for his dearly beloved.
A companion was entrusted with returning the blood-stained rose to his lover.
Trust?
Love?
Death?
War?
And did he, the footman do his job?
It should end here but it does not.
The messenger sees an opportunity to poke around if you know what I mean.
He has the bleeding rose but hesitates to hand it over.
Ideas and inventions fill his head.
He has little chance of seducing Maria Rosetta but for the opportunity of eyeing up the distressed damsel’s exposed left breast.
Some people have no shame, believe me.
So on Saint Mark’s day a ripe nipple can replace the brightest of roses.
Amen.
Evelyne Huet :
Beautiful story... Ordinary concupiscent terrestrial behaviour against true and heavenly love feeling over the death... And the winner is...the Eden snake with its Temptation.
Evelyne Huet :
I just realized that I did not catch everything in this story.
In particular, I am wondering why Maria Rosetta exposed her left breast?? Despair or Temptation or...?...? Temptation would mean that the Snake won twice.
Eze Chimalio :
The background is Eden.
The mystery is subjective.
Maria Rosetta is "Eve" Left is the angle of lust and the snake is the other part of "Adam".
The play is eternal.
And so on.................
