Asuka, presumed Eve-type, lies underneath as Shinji strangles her. Below is Dante Gabriel Rossetti's 1867 portrait of Lilith, who he imagines as "a self-absorbed [...] beauty who combs her hair and seductively exposes her shoulders" (MET website). Asuka is not Eve.

“O live your hand where it lies cool
Upon the eyes whose lids are hot:
Its rosy shade is bountiful
Of silence, and assuages thought.
O lay your lips against your hand
And let me feel your breath through it...”
Dante Gabriel Rossetti

“se forse vivrò, tuo miserando
servo, sarà mia vita senza scopo
nella foschia della sventura inutile –
perduto dal palato della mente
il gusto e resa l’ambizione cieca.”

Another #DreamsMW from our Dreams & Nightmares exhibition. Dante Gabriel Rossetti's study depicts 'Fair Rosamund' lost in a daydream of her lover King Henry II. Rosamund was modelled by Fanny Cornforth and was likely based on Tennyson's poem 'A Dream of Fair Women'. #MuseumWeek
During lockdown lots of people have experienced unusual dreams but how many of us can paint them like this?
‘Dante’s Dream’ an epic, sensual work by #Rossetti is inspired by Italian poet, Dante Alighieri’s poem, La Vita Nuova & loaded with complex symbols.

England had been experiencing a religious revival in the 1840s. Rossetti was caught up in the fervour. St Catherine (1857), The Lady of Shallot (1857) & The Tune of Seven Towers (1857)
Rossetti also painted & drew Arthurian legends & these would also inspire Edward Burne-Jones. Dante’s Vision (1855), Paolo & Francesca (1855) & Jane Burden (1857). Some of his models were minor artists.

Like the March wind, I don't give peace.
I enjoy lashing every dormant soul, and drawing it's anger a lively impetus to feel it vibrate between my fingers.
