“
But in a moment - this is clear as well - we notice
that such forms show either completely strawled nudes, reminding death, or
better a "deadly" tiredness (see the lying position, the joint
relaxation, the limb drop, following the lack of muscular and nervous control)
or greatly agitated bodies (see the upright position, where the lower, but
especially the upper limbs are wide apart and hands have the fingers
outstretched in a meaningful gesture showing surprise and despair).” Abstract
out of a review by Pino
Mantovani.
