Scorn
Artist: Paolo Veronese (Italian, 1528 - 1588)
Original Dimensions: 73 1/2" x 74 1/4"
Location: National Gallery of Art, London
About Artwork: (About 1575) "Given the title Scorn in 1727, this is one of a series of four paintings by Veronese that concern the trials and rewards of love, although their precise meanings remain unclear. The compositions are designed to be seen from below, so we know the pictures were intended for a ceiling or a series of ceilings. A naked man is lying on a ruined classical structure. Cupid stands on the man’s chest and beats him with his bow, the string of which has snapped. Cupid seems to be chastising him for his devotion to hedonistic sexuality. A bare-breasted woman looks down on him, apparently with disdain, as she is lead away by another woman holding an ermine, an emblem of purity and moderation, as well as of pregnancy and childbirth. The women may symbolise the interdependent earthly and divine aspects of love, while the man’s hedonistic sexuality is represented as inadmissible in a virtuous life." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
