I just discovered a wonderful popularizer: Isabel Mellen, philosopher and art historian. Her Twitter account is worth reading, what a wonder to listen to and read her! @IsaMellen

I discovered it through her thread about the false ideas we have about "lusts," those naked women whose breasts are hung by a snake (or a frog) on many Romanesque capitals. Highly recommended, and with many surprises.
On many Romanesque capitals and corbels we find a naked woman with a snake and a frog hanging from her breasts. This strange figure has often been interpreted as the sin of lust… However, I am afraid that the matter is more complex. pic.twitter.com/aP279k7yop

I hope it has taken advantage of you.
Good afternoon!
