About the Item
Adversary is the Hebrew definition of the word Satan. In the New Testament, Satan becomes the being that stands in direct opposition to Christ and, by extension, God the Father. Nevertheless, throughout the books of the Old Testament, Satan remains mostly an adversary who tests faith, and one that often does this at the behest of the Lord. This last idea of the adversary is a philosophical concept which reveals that adversaries constantly are also allies and ironically come from the same core. - Juan Barragán
This piece is framed in a gold framed measuring 11.75 x 21.5 inches.

This happens just by throwing an impulsive stroke of red paint. While the figure is not in real danger, i.e. actually bleeding, but instead the red paint represents stepping out of one's comfort zone. It means to leave the status quo...Category

- Jason and Medea - Greek Mythological Couple Inspired Diptych of Love and TragedyBy Richard GibbonsLocated in Chicago, ILThe Greek myth of Medea, the enchantress who helped Jason, leader of the Argonauts, obtain the magical Golden Fleece, is a classic story of betrayal and vengeance. Like many Greek myths, this one too has a tragic ending. She was of divine descent and had the gift of prophecy and married Jason. Theirs's was a passionate beginning but when Jason found another, Medea made the ultimate sacrifice by killing the children the two shared.

His soft features and partially opened lips and her sultry gaze add to the sensuousness of their passionate love affair. The paintings are framed in a simple walnut wooden frames measuring 21.5 x 17.5 inches each. Richard Gibbons Jason and Medea...Category
