"The Annunciation with Saint Emidius" by Carlo Crivelli
Found this on my phone but I don't even remember ever seeing or saving this painting. It's brilliant though so worth a share 😄

"At Forty-Seven Grosvenor Square" by Leonard Campbell Taylor
The lemur's name is Mah-Jongg and the humans are the Courtauld (old money and incredibly important names in the world of art, since they owned so much of it)

"Medusa" by Peter Paul Rubens
Raped by a male for rejecting him and then severely punished for it by a female and turned into a hideous creature, Medusa is not the REAL monster in her life's story. I rest my case.

"The Temptation of Sir Perceval" by Arthur Hacker
In this painting, we should see devout Sir Perceval being tempted by the devil disguised as a beautiful woman. However, some see a gay guy trying to get away from a woman who just won't take the hint.

"Sophia Alekseyevna" by Ilya Repin.
This painting depicts Sophia after she had lost her reign of Russia and was imprisoned in Novodevichy Convent. The fiery look in her eyes says she is ready and willing to fight to reclaim the power she once possessed.
