Jacob Wrestling with the Angel - Alexander Louis Leloir (1843-1884)
4 years ago, this art gave me a huge boost in media, racking up a lot of views on tiktok and becoming popular on Twitter. 4 years later, I redrew it.....
I hope this doesn’t become my new tradition😅
Still, no matter what fandom I’m in, these two will keep popping up again and again in my art, love them
Anyway, enjoy🤍

after watching "angels in america" i'm obsessed with this painting by Alexander Louis Leloir, it's called "Jacob wrestling with the Angel"
image taken from wikipedia
A few days ago I was still obsessing with the painting and the biblical story for *reasons* when it finally hit me.
screenshot is mine
I mean come on, COME ON!
Why is Hannibal such a masterpiece, why, why, why??? its visuals send me places, they're so brutal and poetic sometimes i can't bear to watch them (ngl, the visual impact on me was so big that hannibal nbc played a little role in my decision to stop consuming meat).
and they managed to give us one of the best finales ever produced, it's insane, like the level of this show is SO high i'm just shocked.
Anyway.
Jacob and the Malak, the Angel. Wrestling all night. Touching thighs or hips or whatever. Jacob asking for blessing. REALLY BIBLE, REALLY? You're asking for it.

OBIKIN IS ART
“They are closer than friends. Closer than brothers. Though Obi-Wan is sixteen standard years Anakin's elder, they have become men together. Neither can imagine life without the other.”

Summary:
Draco Malfoy is every suitor's nightmare. His brazen temper and absolute disregard for the personal safety of others has his father in despair. Enter Harry Potter.

Let the madness begin.
Rating: Mature
Word Count: 47,473
Link to Fic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/5243315?view_full_work=true
My Thoughts: This isn’t usually the type of fic I read, but I ended up enjoying it! I really like an insistent Harry, and this Harry was here to deliver. As the tags note, the characters might be a bit out of character. But, it works with the set up and overall flow of the story.

art collector, swan lake, and wes anderson :]
Art collector: What are your favorite paintings?
jacob wrestling with the angel by alexander louis leloir, all of alexei leonov work but especially sunrise in orbit, i forgot the title but a romantic piece i saw in a museum years ago of a landscape without any human inside u could just feel the absolute awe nature inspires both in terror and adoration, la belle dame sans merci, anulante by nicola samori,
Swan Lake: What inspires your creative work?
a lot of personnal experiences or emotions that i need to work on to understand of accept as well as a healthy dose of 'wouldn't this be neat'. a lot of it comes from my obsession with the body and physicality of the world around me, from anger and resentment as well as a feeling of being unanchored, adrift compared to others
Wes Anderson: Favorite films?
the fall 2006, alien, hellraiser, athena, i saw the devil, the king and the mockingbird, spirit, crash

Not to be too sacrilegious but art of Jacob wrestling the angel/God makes me feel some typa way. Like look at Alexander Louis Leloir’s painting and tell me it doesn’t have the exact same vibes as the abduction of Persephone
Here’s some more
IDK maybe wrestling is just intrinsically fruity
