{"product_id":"gm-14600901-jpg","title":"A Centaur and a Female Faun in a Landscape Gm-14600901","description":"Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo (Italian, 1727–1804) In this barren landscape a \u003cspan class=\"text-link\" onclick=\"javascript:link(84, 435, event);\"\u003ecentaur\u003c\/span\u003e and a female \u003cspan class=\"text-link\" onclick=\"javascript:link(84, 457, event);\"\u003efaun\u003c\/span\u003e lie enraptured in each other's arms. Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo borrowed from mythology to invent this erotic image, which is part of a series of drawings he made of centaurs, fauns, and \u003cspan class=\"text-link\" onclick=\"javascript:link(84, 1173, event);\"\u003esatyrs\u003c\/span\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e To the Greeks and Romans, these imaginary creatures represented lust. Tiepolo also modeled them after a legend about \u003cspan class=\"text-link\" onclick=\"javascript:link(84, 465, event);\"\u003eHercules\u003c\/span\u003e, who killed a centaur for attempting to seduce his wife. A quiver of arrows, a bow, and a club-weapons identified with Hercules-lie near the centaur. The centaur's head is thrown back, and he reclines as if dead, but the faun's joyful expression conveys otherwise. Although the original tale is about seduction and attempted rape, Tiepolo suggests here that the lovemaking is consensual.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Tiepolo's loose drawing style seems appropriate for this fantasy world. Fluid ink washes define the landscape and almost envelop the creatures, while sketchy pen lines exaggerate the rocky terrain and the characters' subtle gestures. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\n\r\n\r","brand":"Arte.Net","offers":[{"title":"Note Cards (4.7\" x 6.5\") 12 x 16.5cm Pack of 4","offer_id":56373402763647,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":20.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Giclee Matte Art Paper (18\" x 24\") 45 x 60cm","offer_id":56373402796415,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":50.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Giclee Matte Art Paper (24\" x 36\") 60 x 90cm","offer_id":56373402829183,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":76.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Giclee Matte Art Paper (30\" x 40\") 75 x 100cm","offer_id":56373402861951,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":90.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Giclee Matte Art Paper (44\" x 60\") 112 x 152cm","offer_id":56373402894719,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":220.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stretched Canvas (16\" x 20\") 40 x 50cm","offer_id":56373402927487,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":100.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stretched Canvas (18\" x 24\") 45 x 60cm","offer_id":56373402960255,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":150.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stretched Canvas (28\" x 28\") 70 x 70cm","offer_id":56373402993023,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":200.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stretched Canvas (24\" x 36\") 60 x 90cm","offer_id":56373403025791,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":240.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stretched Canvas (24\" x 48\") 60 x 122cm","offer_id":56373403058559,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":250.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stretched Canvas (32\" x 48\") 80 x 122cm","offer_id":56373403091327,"sku":"Gm-14600901 -","price":340.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/4245\/5423\/files\/Gm-14600901_799f475c-e537-4522-83d9-b9927c47aba0.jpg?v=1762774085","url":"https:\/\/arte.net\/products\/gm-14600901-jpg","provider":"Arte.Net","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
