El pincel del burdel

Lo que soy yo sólo lo sabe el verso que va a morir en tus labios como el relincho que da fin a la caza -L. M. Panero

Taga la gata se fundió con el infinito... (2007-2021) Como fantasma sin procedencia reclamaste tu lugar en la casa nuestra en mi ropa vieja; Ahora viajas por el otro lado de la vida cuidando el sueño de gatitos sin dueño o ejerciendo el espionaje intergaláctico... quien sabe, eres infinita...

The Triumph of Neptune and Amphitrite aka The Birth of Venus by Nicolas Poussin, ca1635-1636 Oil on canvas 114,4 cm x 146,6 cm Philadelphia Museum of Art, USA

This mythological or religious (depending on the viewer's religion or lack of it) scene clearly depicts Poseidon (or Neptune to the Romans), bearded and muscular, with four horses and a trident, to the left. It is not clear whether the central female figure, sitting on a shell boat, is intended to depict Venus, Poseidon's wife Amphitrite, or Galatea, hence the painting is also known by two quite different titles.

Nicolas Poussin (June 1594 Les Andelys – 19 November 1665 Rome) was a French painter who was a leading painter of the classical French Baroque style, although he spent most of his working life in Rome.

Heinrich Hofmann (German, 1824-1911) Christ in Gethsemane, 1890 Gethsemane chapel Jesus prayed the same prayer three times in the Garden of Gethsemane. Matthew 26:39-44 describes Jesus' prayer. He goes away to pray, pleading with God to take the suffering away if possible, but ultimately submitting to God's will. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). - The Bible.

Letter (active late 16th c) The Battle of Lepanto, 7 October 1571 National Maritime Museum, Greenwich The Battle of Lepanto, fought on October 7, 1571, was a major naval battle between the Holy League (Spain, Venice, the Papacy, and other Catholic states) and the Ottoman Empire. The Holy League, led by Don Juan of Austria, decisively defeated the Ottoman fleet, marking a turning point in the struggle for control of the Mediterranean Sea. The battle took place in the Gulf of Patras, off the coast of western Greece. The battle was a major victory for the Christian forces, stemming the advance of the Ottomans into the Mediterranean and preventing a potential Ottoman invasion of Europe.
