The similarity or even the interchangeability of sacred and erotic language has often been observed, also in the field of visual language. This image taken in a room called Chevy Chase (the old refectorium of a Benedictine priory) at St. Michael's Mount in Cornwall, shows the assumption of the Virgin Mary into Heaven. I was told that the stained glass pane is of Flemish origin (Bruges perhaps) and dating to the 16th century. Botticelli's "Birth of Venus/Aphrodite" may have been used here as a template. With a kind of delightful perplexion I am asking myself whether in this case the religious vision at the end of the day turns out to be undistinguishable from the erotic dream.

The similarity or even the interchangeability of sacred and erotic language has often been observed, also in the field of visual language. This image taken in a room called Chevy Chase (the old refectorium of a Benedictine priory) at St. Michael's Mount in Cornwall, depicts Hell in a rather medieval fashion. I was told that the stained glass pane is of Flemish origin (Bruges perhaps) and dating to around 1500. But what kind of place is hell? People are stark naked and squeezed together. Even the devils have an erotic connotation, though a negative one. Is Hell a more interesting place than we thought?
