This
third version of the painting realized five years after the first
one is, just like the series of the Arcanes of the Tarot, placed under
the sign of the Duality Female / Masculine. Besides one finds
there the majority of the elements which are the central subjects
of these pictures (see the Tarots pages on this site). The masculine is
registered in the red spiral in top on the right, the female one in
the blue spiral which makes him opposite. The central spiral sees
both merging in an androgyny with two heads, symbolizing the
psychic unification of Animus and of Anima beloved by C.G.Jung.
The whole of the painting is largely placed under the sign of Jung's
psychology and of speculative Alchemy, which does not
prevent a certain ludic aspect and purely aesthetics.
The four appearances of the kiss of Rodin confirm the topic of the
union of the opposites. The mask of Satan in bottom of the
chessboard on top of Christ's last meal and with his apostles
precedes the developments of fourth Aglou
on the coexistence of " good " and of " evil ".
