Symbolism Continued . . . .

William Degoure de Nuncques (1867 - 1935) one of the most dreamiest of Symbolist Painters, was in real life a steady, ordinary man unlike his fellow painters obsessed with death, decadence, the love hate love of women, sexual ambiguity, and drugs.

The Angels of the Night (1894), oil on canvas, is a day dream in a night dream of winged angels meeting their secret darkness of the starlight, or in very early dawn, and kissing each other in a very sexy kiss, a loving, secret night tryst kind of kiss.  They others are flying around in each other's arms, swaying in the mist and light breeze.

The painting is remennessant of Henri Rousseau who painted much later, using similar themes.
Similar beauty, ethereal quality, and subtle sexuality that Rousseau was so famous for. 

The lines in the angel painting are sliced as a sidewalk cuts through to the vanishing point, and circled as in the small patches of grass as in the early spring, showing fragile flowers.  The coupled angles (there is one sole angel sitting dreamy like in the round with a garland.) has light on their faces and there is a true love valentine feel to their angel kisses.
