“What Napoleon criticised in the statue could perhaps be summed up in one thing: his uneasiness at the sight of his own nudity. And it was precisely his nudity that was felt to be problematic, even shocking. But how did Canova come to have the odd idea of representing Napoleon as a nude divinity?”

Hopefully I have done the characters justice! I’ve read the first book in the series a couple weeks ago and simple had to draw something while waiting to start the second book as I’m buddy reading the books.

Some star signs are hidden in Lucifer’s wings 🪽 The idea was to draw the progress of their relationship through different famous statues, so hopefully I can find the time for it (wings are so much work to draw)

Review will follow later on instagram (Thylacinx_bookish) 📚
