This thesis aims to study and describe the evolution and transformations of female archetypes appearing in the production of symbolist art movement during the time period 1880 1914. It focuses on all used variants of symbols and personifications of womanhood, and it tries to present the complete iconographic overview. The main goal is to learn whether symbolists were using maily symbols of a destructive antiheroine or whether there was a wider spectrum of positive and honorable female icons. There are also examples used from the decadent literature which include those symbolic figures. |
