Image description

Whole artwork view. According to this revival of the myth of Orestes, the black jagged shadow that looms over the dummy, faced backwards, symbolizes his remorse for killing his mother Clytemnestra; teams and wooden triangles seem to stick in his flesh as the arrows hitting Saint Sebastian during his martyrdom; two classic volutes frame the scene. Giorgio De Chirico (1978) De Chirico Home-Museum, Rome, Lazio, Italy
