File talk:Socrates and Xanthippe.jpg

Interprétation douteuse

Je trouve le commentaire de l'image à revoir: Si Xanthippe jette bien de l'eau sur la tête de Socrate, le pot de chambre est un exagération de Gerard de Lairesse, car dans ce document, page 137, on parle de "pitcher" . Le texte grec parle d'eau tout simplement [1]

Quant à la scène du fond, concernant les trois personnes sur le bateau, je ne vois pas comment on peut y voir un jeune homme maltraitant deux personnes âgées et je demande une source pour cette interprétation. HB (talk) 09:29, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Incorrect attribution

I don't know what to do about this, but this image is NOT from Otto Van Veen's 1607 emblem book.

It is a poor copy, reversed, of the image in the 1607 edition. This also isn't from Gomberville's pirated editions (in 1646 and 1648) nor is it from the first English translation by Gibbs in 1721. This can be confirmed by inspecting the corresponding documents in archive.org.

Can the person who uploaded this correct the identification of the source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZoneAlarm5 (talk • contribs) 04:21, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
