Mix-up: Squalo balena nel mare Flora the Metropolitan Museum of Art

the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York

allowing for spiritual elevation

and the Venus of this painting is the ultimate ideal of female beauty in art

I offer you this work because it is a monument to women: Leonardo offers us a young woman capable of taming a dangerous animal like an ermine

going beyond

Mix-up: Squalo balena nel mare Flora the Metropolitan Museum of ArtI bring this image to you because the whale shark is so big it looks like an ancient god of the sea, with all those bright spots on its back. At the same time it is gentle, and swims on the surface but also in the depths of the ocean. What better symbol of freedom? This fascinating image is of a whale shark in the Maldives. Printed on one sheet of an ancient Italian geography book from a century ago. Frame not included
