#31 - Unfiltered Archetypal Horror - Elle by Gustav Adolf Mossa - Art Analysis
Update: 2020-03-26
Description
The French Symbolist movement was a brief moment in art history that bridged gothic romanticism with decadent, surreal modernism. The movement was concerned with articulating immortal human truths through art, rather than reason, and as a result, it invoked the psychological resonance of Carl Jung's Archetypes in profoundly unique ways. This episode analyzes the uncanny masterpiece of Gustav Adolf Mossa, a painting of Elle, the sublime goddess of death and devourer of men.
