Two gay men, young, beautiful, intimate and naked; and the scene in the picture is perfect. Loving glances, lust for each other. They want to enjoy their nakedness together. What is about to happen, both have desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimeon Solomon, the great painter in whose style we have created this picture, had to hide gay longing in figures of saints and myths – because he was not allowed to openly show loving men. Yet he knew very well what happens between men when no one is watching – because he himself was gay. We paint in his spirit – and show what the exceptional artistic talent was never allowed to openly show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe belonged to the elite of the Victorian art world. Rossetti valued him, Wilde admired him, the Royal Academy exhibited his work. In 1873 he was arrested for loving a man. The art world remained silent. He died impoverished in a London workhouse in 1905 – the gay artist whom Victorian England could not tolerate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis picture is for all who know what this gaze means.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Simeon Solomon (1840–1905)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolomon painted longing – between men, veiled in gold and halo, because he was not allowed to show it openly.
