Magic Circle by John William Waterhouse

"The witch burnings didn't take place during the "Dark Ages" as we commonly suppose. They occurred between the 15th and 18th centuries - precisely during and following the Rennaisance, that glorious period when, as we are taught, "men's" minds were being freed from bleakness and superstition. While Michelangelo was sculpting and Shakespeare writing, witches (mainly elderly women) were burning. The whole secular "Enlightenment" in fact, the male professions of doctor, lawyer, judge, artist, all rose from the ashes of destroyed women's culture. Renaissance men were celebrating naked female beauty in their art, while women's bodies were being tortured and burned by the hundreds of thousands all around them."

- The Great Cosmic Mother - Monica Sjoo and Barbara Mor

J.W. Waterhouse, Santa Cecilia, 1895.

John William Waterhouse ha raffigurato la santa sul lato destro della composizione mentre dorme su uno scranno in marmo con decori. Le sue mani si posano su un libro miniato e trattengono una rosa rossa, dietro di lei un roseto in fiore con tralci vicini al suo capo e ai suoi piedi. Accanto, nei pressi dell’antica fontana si notano dei fiori di papavero.

Sul lato opposto si collocano due angeli inginocchiati davanti alla Santa a fianco di un piccolo organo che probabilmente la stessa stava suonando prima di addormentarsi. Gli angeli indossano abiti bianchi, simbolo di purezza, e suonano per lei. Un cespuglio di rose bianche si erge intorno alla gamba dell’angelo in primo piano a significare nuovamente la loro purezza.

Cecilia è mostrata dormiente tra rose rosse e papaveri. Il papavero è un fiore associato all’oblio e al sonno, poiché ella chiude gli occhi, è ignara delle cure e delle preoccupazioni del mondo. L’amore di Dio è la fonte della sua trascendenza e ciò è rivelato dalle rose che sovrastano i papaveri e fioriscono accanto al suo viso.  Il roseto rappresenta l’amore di Dio nel simbolismo cristiano medievale ed il fatto che sia in fiore accanto alla sua testa suggerisce che la sua mente sia completamente concentrata su Dio.

Cecilia inoltre tiene una rosa in grembo sopra il manoscritto miniato con inni e canti d’amore per l’Altissimo da lei intonati mentre suonava l’organo, questo la conduce ad uno stato di oblio, di distacco dalle preoccupazioni umane. Gli angeli inginocchiati davanti a lei dimostrano questa trascendenza dal mondo per mezzo della musica e celebrano la sua elevazione verso Dio.

Santa Cecilia rappresenta la bontà della musica, sia quella che possiamo produrre per celebrare l’amore di Dio, che quella celeste che può risuonare nei nostri cuori e nelle nostre menti quando trascendiamo il mondo.

With the new Sims 4 Crystal Creations coming out I thought my house needed some appropriate decor. It's hard to go wrong with JW Waterhouse. Recolors of two different framed paintings, lots of choices, base-game compatible. I have tested them since the update and they caused no problems but if any pop up for you, let me know. Otherwise:

Mastercopy of Circe Offering the Cup to Ulysses, original work by John William Waterhouse, 1891. This was the most difficult and biggest piece I’ve done thus far - a big challenge with the angle of the face and the smoothness of the brushstrokes

Thank you to @jw-waterhouse which provided the brightened and high resolution image that I could work from and made the painting take on the vibrancy of the original masterpiece

Reblogs, comments, and likes are so appreciated!
