Hacia tiempo que tenia ganas de emular de alguna manera esta obrita de Flegel, un pintor checo que recibió ciudadania de Francfort en el s.XVII,y que se especializó en naturalezas muertas con flores, siempre cargadas de simbolismo, muy del gusto de la época.
Aparentemente la obrita de Flegel es una inocente representación de un lorito con frutas. Nada más lejos de la realidad.
En sus composiciones encontramos simbolos que encarnan los principios del bien y del mal combatiendo por el alma humana.
Si observamos, a la izquierda de la obra se encuentran una mosca y una manzana. Las moscas, según Reyes II,1 (Belecebú:señor de las moscas) serían consideradas como animales del diablo, y la manzana ahonda este significado por ser la fruta de la tentación y de la expulsión del paraiso.
El lorito, sin embargo hace referencia a la resurreción, las fresas y las cerezas son las frutas del paraiso.
Más ambigua me parece la representación de los frutos secos roidos y abiertos, pues aunque la nuez era simbolo de Cristo, y la cáscara simbolo de la madera de la cruz, por extensión a otros frutos secos, el hecho de que estén abiertos y roidos por el lorito, puede mostrar la naturaleza del sacrificio que Cristo hizo con su vida.
Mi versión en collage conserva algo del simbolismo pero es más festiva.
La manzana ha sido sustituida por una fruta más mediterránea y solar, la naranja, y en vez de una mosca he introducido una mariposa.
Al fin y al cabo, en mi versión ya no hay lucha, el bien ha ganado y afortunadamente la visión moderna de la Naturaleza nos libra de contemplar a los seres vivos como buenos o malos.
................................................................
By the time that I wanted to emulate somehow this little picture of Flegel, a Czech painter who received citizenship Frankfurt in the XVII century , and who specialized in still lifes with flowers, always loaded with symbolism, much to the taste of the time .
Apparently the little picture of Flegel is an innocent representation of a parrot with fruit. Nothing is further from the truth.
In his compositions find symbols that embody the principles of good and evil fighting for the human soul.
If you look to the left of the work are a fly and an apple. Flies, as Reyes II, 1 (Belecebú: Lord of the Flies) would be considered animals of the devil, and deepens the meaning apple being the fruit of temptation and the expulsion from paradise.
The parrot, however, refers to the resurrection, strawberries and cherries are the fruit of paradise.
Seems more ambiguous representation of nuts and gnawed open as though the nut was a symbol of Christ, and the shell symbol of the wood of the cross, by extension, other nuts, that are open and gnawed the parrot, can show the nature of the sacrifice that Christ did with his life.
My collage version retains some of the symbolism but more festive.
The apple has been replaced by a more Mediterranean fruit and solar, orange, and instead of a fly I have introduced a butterfly.

At the end, in my version there is no struggle, has well earned and fortunately the modern view of nature to behold us from living things as good or bad.
