Chute des Anges Rebelles

The Fall of the Rebelious Angels. Oil on Canvas 120 X 120 cm.
(1984) Satan, in the shape of a monkey, drowses on its gilded
throne, carried by slaves guided by a daemon overlapping one
monstrous animal (in bottom on the right).Frightened giants try to
prevent him of an imminent danger: combatants angels fly down
in cascade from the sky to destroy the troop of fallen angels
which followed the Malignant one. This topic often treated during
the middle age and the Italian Renaissance was the subject of
the one of more brilliances masterwork of Breughel the old.
The goat showing on his face the diabolic red pentacle ( bottom
on the left) makes in spite of all a beneficial act:he shows with his
finger the initial of the three great painters who inspired this work:
SD for Salvador Dali, PB for Peter Breughel
and JB for Jerome Bosch.
