As we all know, Eve was punished for being lured by snakes to eat forbidden fruit, which established the basic position of women in society. The original painting is in the form of an altar screen, with Adam and Eve on two long and narrow vertical plates respectively. Eve's movements are graceful, full of dance sense and feminine charm. Adam's nude image has obvious tendency of ancient Greek style. He seems to be more inner than Eve, and he feels calm on the whole. Because there was a smile on Eve's face, which reflected Adam's inner confusion.
In Desperate Housewives, Adam was knocked down by a sign that said "Desperate Housewives".
Eve caught the apple falling from the tree and smiled charming, showing that this TV series will be centered on women, with women taking the lead and taking more initiative to control the situation.
Through Adam and Eve, into the Egyptian mural stage. The Pharaoh, who represents male chauvinism, stood up, but immediately fell down, and many women stood up, once again showing the situation that women are stronger than men.
The following groups of pictures respectively describe the four women in the play.
Portrait of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Fini-Lynette
It turns out that this painting has no name. 1934, panofsky, an art historian, recorded it in16th century, and his work was named The Portrait of Mr. and Mrs. Anofini.
He verified the identity of the two people in the painting and further explained the meaning of their standing posture:
The man's left hand and the woman's right hand are put together, right in the center of the picture, indicating the marriage oath. At that time, as long as both men and women expressed their love through words or actions, they could enter into a legal marriage, even if there were no witnesses. As a result, all the information in the picture seems to be related to marriage: the man's right hand stands on his chest and solemnly swears; The woman's left hand is placed on the lower abdomen, suggesting the expectation of pregnancy and childbirth; The candle on the chandelier and the puppy on the ground mean loyalty to each other; And the shoes off show that this is a holy place; Red sheets and curtains make the room look like a new house, and the wood carving decoration on the bedside is about St. Margaret's story, her belief at that time also implied the desire for children. In particular, we can't ignore the mirror on the wall, which is just above the hand, indicating that it is convex and reflects the panoramic view of the room. We saw that in front of the couple, two people came in from the door, and one of them must be the painter himself, because between the mirror and the chandelier, there was a Latin line "Johannes de eyck fuit hic", which means "Yang Van Ike was present", and there was an exact time. 1434. Like a photographer, the painter "shoots" the next wedding photo for the couple, so that every audience is in the position of a witness to witness a vow of love.
In the play, the painting was messed up. Mr. Arnold Fini threw the banana peel on the ground, and Mrs. Arnold Fini swept up with a big belly. This alludes to the Lynette couple in the film. Tom worked outside, leaving Lynette with a mess at home, which exhausted Lynette.
American Gothic Style-Bree
Grant wood's American Gothic can be said to be a work with high spoofing rate, and Desperate Housewives shows no weakness in spoofing. In the title, the Iowa farmer in the original painting was asked to "pick wild flowers", and the Iowa wife was unable to fight back, so she had to sulk and become a trademark of a box of cans. This implies that the two people in Mr. and Mrs. Bree's paintings are rigid and unsmiling, which coincides with Bree's strict family rules. Then the man laughed after being seduced by the enchanting woman, and the woman looked sad and was sealed in a jar, which was very similar to the plot of Rex's infidelity in the film.
"Am I proud? ("I am proud")-Gabriel
This is a famous poster during World War II. At that time, it undoubtedly carried forward the female spirit and promoted the status of women.
Desperate Housewives inherits this spirit and makes the woman in the poster miss a super famous can-
Canned Campbell Soup and Canned Campbell Soup.
Canned Campbell Soup is a classic work reflecting the materialistic era and has become a symbol of consumption in the United States. Andy warhol, the author of this painting, is the originator of pop art, and his influence is everywhere in modern society. Canned Campbell Soup is a classic work reflecting the materialistic era. The society has been seriously materialistic (this situation appeared earlier in the United States), so there are many consumption symbols (the outstanding representative of which is the portrait of Monroe). Andy warhol's specialty is to reinterpret the image of everyday objects. Of course, when it comes to material girls, we can easily think of Gabriel in Desperate Housewives.
Fight.-Susan
Susan is the most chaotic of the other three women. Susan longed for men's love, but she was repeatedly injured. Both her ex-husband Carl and the mysterious plumber Mike made her cry.
The last scene-four housewives holding a "forbidden fruit" smile.
These pictures appeared in the title of Desperate Housewives in chronological order, first in the mythological era, then in ancient Egypt, in the Middle Ages, at the beginning of last century, and finally at the end of last century. From Eve to neon beauty, from smashing Adam to punching handsome guys, several famous paintings have been slightly changed, just like a chronicle of women's status, showing the changes in the status relationship between men and women in the course of human history.
The background music is the first cry of Christine in Phantom of the Opera, which surprised the audience.
