Medusa with the Head of Perseus, Luciano Garbati, 2008
I adore how she carries his head low, at her side, and not aloft in triumph. This is not a self-aggrandizing hero lauding her great deed. This is a woman who wanted to be left the fuck alone.
Also look at her body. The double hips. The asymetrical boobs. She’s thin, but she’s realistic as hell. That’s a real woman.
And the look in her eyes. Damn.
Medusa was cursed because Posiedon went after her and she didn’t want him but agree still got the fucking blame! Fuck Poseidon! And… Was it Artemis who cursed her?
It was Athena, and some more modern interpretations say it was a blessing in disguise of a curse. Never again could another man touch her without her permission–he’d be turned to stone.
