Title

Bodegas Melibea, Madrid bar (2015)

Date

2015

Description

Wine cellar on 9 Espoz y Mina Street, Madrid, decorated with
tiles of attractive erotic images of nude women that do not seem to be connected at all to La Celestina other than by the general eroticism. A tile painting of the interior that mixes eroticism and memento mori. Also, one of the paintings on the front of the building is of a nude woman with a black servant that vaguely reminds us of the painting Olimpia de Manet and its implications of a gift from a suitor.
