ADONE AND VENUS

Opera Text

The work represents the two deities standing, in an attitude of languid affection.The last intense gaze between two lovers almost aware of their sad and unhappy destiny. It is precisely this that the sculptor represents: a woman worried about the presentiment of what could happen to her young beloved. A sense of protection that manifests itself in a sweet and delicate caress of the goddess on the face of Adonis. He, with the expression dominated by a feeble smile, seems to want to reassure her, hugging her with a tender embrace.
