*Working Towards a Better World
How long can the privileged get away with raping others, just because they are wealthy and famous, it makes no sense. No-one should worship anyone, everyone is human and equal and there is no excuse whatsoever for this type of behavior at any time! We must stop it NOW!
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️ ❤️
Sebastiano Ricci (Belluno, July 1659 - Venice, May 15, 1734) - Rape of Helen (1700-1710) - Oil on canvas 244 x 418 cm - Galleria Nazionale Parma
Il tema del ratto o rapimento ha uno sviluppo sorprendente soprattutto nei secoli XVII-XVIII e ha come base letteraria l’aneddotica storica greco-romana. Fra quelli pittoricamente più declamati si ricordano il ratto di Briseide, Europa, Dejanira, Proserpina, delle Sabine e di Elena appunto, tanto è vero che lo stesso Sebastiano Ricci si confronta con quasi tutte queste tematiche prima o dopo la realizzazione del nostro quadro.
È un soggetto assai richiesto, per la carica erotica che contiene e per la possibilità di sviluppare articolate anatomie, oltreché per dilatare la scena oltre al fatto vero e proprio, includendovi brani di paesaggio, aspetti architettonici, e la messa in scena di molti personaggi fino a farne una sorta di tableau vivant, dove la crudezza del passo principale si mescola con la mobilità generale di tutte le comparse. In ogni rapimento, pur nell’adesione al brano letterario di riferimento, il pittore ha la possibilità di comporre numerose varianti che danno sfogo alla sua creatività e a una visualizzazione del racconto sempre diversa.
The theme of the rape or abduction has a surprising development especially in the seventeenth-eighteenth centuries and has as its literary basis the Greek-Roman historical anecdote. Among those pictorially more declaimed remember the rape of Briseis, Europe, Dejanira, Proserpina, of the Sabine women and Elena precisely, so much so that the same Sebastiano Ricci is confronted with almost all these themes before or after the realization of our painting.
It is a very popular subject, for the erotic charge that it contains and for the possibility of developing articulated anatomies, as well as to expand the scene beyond the actual fact, including pieces of landscape, architectural aspects, and the staging of many characters to make it a sort of tableau vivant, where the rawness of the main step is mixed with the general mobility of all the extras. In each rapture, while adhering to the literary passage of reference, the painter has the possibility of composing numerous variations that give vent to his creativity and to an always different visualization of the story.
Rape blossoms of Okitsugawa River
興津川流域の菜の花
Rape blossoms of my hometown. After this, the rape blossoms will grow and turn into seeds. I cut the grass. I cut the grass late last year, so this year it turned bright yellow.
川原に咲く菜の花です。菜の花はこの後大きくなりながら種になります。そして徐々に木の枝のように固くなって枯れます。早くに刈ってしまうと夏の草が勢いよく成長して大変なので、昨年は枯れ切ってから草刈りしました。その結果マッキッキ！今年も同じ作戦でいくので、きっと来年もマッキッキ！

From my walk yesterday and it was glorious walking through an oil seed rape field with all the bright sunny yellow flowers.
The Rape of Persephone (Italian: Ratto di Proserpina) is a large Baroque marble sculptural group by Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, executed between 1621 and 1622.
Bernini was only 23 years old at its completion. It depicts the abduction of Proserpina, who is seized and taken to the underworld by the god Hades.
