少女飄揚(yáng)的長(zhǎng)發(fā),翻飛的衣袂,優(yōu)美的姿態(tài),使畫面極富動(dòng)勢(shì)。少女衣褶除陰影的處理似乎受到印象派的影響。

Lamia 雷米爾
Painting Date: 1905
Medium: Oil on canvas
Size: 57 x 36 in
Location: Private Collection

傳說中雷米爾是女妖,她化作漂亮女子誘惑男子然后吃掉。
本圖根據(jù)John Keat的詩Lamia寫成
She was a gordian shape of dazzling hue,
Vermilion-spotted, golden, green, and blue;
Striped like a zebra, freckled like a pard,
Eyed like a peacock, and all crimson barr'd;
And full of silver moons, that, as she breathed,
Dissolv'd, or brighter shone, or interwreathed
Their lustres with the gloomier tapestries--
So rainbow-sided, touch'd with miseries,
She seem'd, at once, some penanced lady elf,
Some demon's mistress, or the demon's self.

普緒克是人類靈魂的象征。
羅馬神話中,普緒克是一位美貌的公主,人們崇拜她勝過崇拜維納斯。維納斯命令他的兒子丘比特讓普緒克愛上世界上最丑陋的生物。但丘比特愛上了普緒克,把維納斯的命令拋在腦后。
丘比特和普緒克成為戀人,但丘比特禁止普緒克看他,后來普緒克還是看到了丘比特,丘比特逃走了。

本圖的故事是接著上圖的故事發(fā)生的,丘比特跑掉后,普緒克四處尋找他,維納斯布下重重難關(guān),考驗(yàn)普緒克是否配得上她的兒子。其中一項(xiàng)就是不許她打開金盒子,普緒克忍不住打開了金盒子,從此她陷入長(zhǎng)眠。
最后,朱庇特寬恕了這對(duì)情侶,然后就是俗氣的王子和公主“l(fā)ive along happily”
