The Sacrifice of Iphigenia

(

)

... that Paul Delvaux's painting The Sacrifice of Iphigenia has been interpreted as a work about the little death? Source: Die Neue Pauly Supplement 5, p. 378 "...die aufgebahrte, möglicherweise tote Frau im Mittelgrund - in Zusammenhang mit frz. >la petite mort<, i.e. Orgasmus - dementsprechend auf die sexuelle Initiation." [...the laid out, possibly dead woman in the middle space - in connection with the French "la petite mort", i.e. orgasm - corresponds to sexual initiation.]
