The Unwelcome Guest

Salome - the ultimate bad hostess and John the Baptist, the ultimate unwelcome guest... the images have haunted for centuries and I for one have always wanted to give a Salome dinner party, the head being played by whomever annoys me at that point. I would need to wear the most seductive jewelry and serve on the strangest and most magnificent platters. Here is a start for your own Salome party! Let Oscar Wilde guide you in your endeavors.


Images of Salome by Titian, Andrea Solari, Maud Adams as Salome, Unknown, Guido Reni, Moreau.
