Thisbé se tue sur le corps de Pyrame ; la lionne est cachée dans les arbres
-
Description
-
Thisbe, wearing the blue gown, throws herself onto her lover’s sword. Her lover in the red robe, Pyramus, lies on the ground dead after thinking he found evidence of Thisbe’s death. In the background, a lioness hides in the trees – the lioness is to blame for both deaths. She wiped her bloody mouth on Thisbe’s cloak, which Pyramus found and lead him to believe that Thisbe had been eaten. He killed himself out of heartbreak, which lead to Thisbe finding his body, and killing herself, too.
