Young Virgin Auto-Sodomised by the Horns of Her Own Chastity (1954)



Seated Girl, Seen from the Back (1925)



Girl from the Back (1926)

Re: Women with their backs to us

My favourite drawing by Egon Schiele:



Drawing a Nude Before a Mirror (1910)

The model seen from behind, and in front, with the artist, in the act of creation, gazing at his viewer. Extraordinary!

Re: Women with their backs to us

Edward Hopper
Morning in a City






"Tell me how you want to die, and I'll tell you who you are. In other words, how do you fill out an empty life? With women, books, or worldly ambitions? No matter what you do, the starting point is boredom, and the end self-destruction. The emblem of our fate: the sky teeming with worms. Baudelaire taught me that life is the ecstasy of worms in the sun, and happiness the dance of worms."
---Tears and Saints, E. M. Cioran
