the story of Salomé,
a young, light-hearted dancing girl. A girl seemingly more childish than sultry. This, however, strongly contrasts with the story of the infamous Salomé. A young girl whose beautiful erotic dancing pleased her king so greatly, he granted her wish to have John the Baptist’s head on a platter. When paired with the description “an icon of dangerous female seductiveness,” this painting does not exactly hold it up. This painting is a perfect example of how knowing the story behind a work of art can be the key to “reading between the lines” of paintings.

"Clair de lune" (French for "Moonlight") is a poem written by French poet paul verlain in 1869. It is the inspiration for the third and most famous movement of claud debussy's 1890suit bergamasque. Debussy also made two settings of the poem for voice and piano accompaniment.
