01- The bolt
A draft of reduced size (26x32,5 cm) of this table was sold at Christie' S on December 17, 1999 for the sum of 8,08 million euros. The original version of the Bolt was acquise by the museum of the Louvre in 1974.
It was conceived by the painter as during with the Worship of the shepherds (offered to the Louvre in 1988 per Mister and Mrs Roberto Polo). The crowned Love and the profane Love are thus opposed. Great questioning being:
does it act of a rape or a scene of love?
Table sold with frame.
