Salome by Franz Stuck Art Print

Franz Stuck’s Salome (c. 1906) paints the dancer from the Gospels who demanded the head of John the Baptist, the girl who became one of the great femmes fatales of art and literature. Stuck doesn’t show the dance or the bloodshed. He shows her, dark-eyed and composed, with the calm of someone who knows exactly what she’s done.

Stuck was a leading German Symbolist, a co-founder of the Munich Secession, and a teacher of Kandinsky and Klee. His subject was always the dangerous woman, and Salome is one of the later entries in that line, following Sin, Sensuality, and The Kiss of the Sphinx.

This print is made for the dark academia library, the moody bedroom, the gothic gallery wall, or the altar corner.

WHY IT WORKS ON A WALL
It’s a quiet, intense portrait with a story anyone who knows Wilde, Strauss, or the Bible will recognize at a glance. Hang it with Sin and Medusa for a gallery of Stuck’s most dangerous women.

CHOOSE YOUR FINISH

• Canvas Print: A real canvas surface for the closest thing to a painted piece. Ready to hang.
