Talk:Marriage A-la-Mode: 1. The Marriage Settlement

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It says "Left hand wall, centre oval: immediately above the bride and groom a Gorgon's head observes the scene and screams from an oval frame (as if even she is horrified by the scene before her). Normally the candlesticks would be to either side of the frame, but to heighten the absurdity they are central and therefore block a clear view of the Gorgon’s face."

Is this "Gorgon" not Caravaggio's "Head of Medusa"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.194.57.43 (talk) 00:14, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Please can someone explain where the names come from? Jezza (talk) 14:48, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Squanderfield" is mentioned somewhere in the painting, Silvertongue is named in the last painting, on the sheet of paper labeled "Councellor Silvertongue's Last Dying Speech". 76.117.247.55 (talk) 02:31, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
