About the Cover
Surrealist artist Max Ernst was a ardent connoisseur of desire and feminine
beauty in his private life. His The Robing Of The Bride, painted in
1939/1940, reveals a life-long fascination with the erotic symbolism of
alchemy and Rosicrucianism. In the language of alchemical procedure, the
symbol of the bride represents the philosopher's stone, perceived by
alchemists as a feminine being, much like that other unattainable object of
mystery, the Grail. The bride was first chemically "stripped" and then
"robed" before being "perfected" in the final stage of the operation. This
robing of the bride preceded the alchemical wedding, the mingling of
opposing sexual energies into an androgynous whole, referred to obliquely in
that famous Rosicrucian document, The Chymical Marriage Of Christian Rosencreutz.
Other alchemical symbols in Ernst's image include the grotesque
hermaphroditic homunculus depicted in the lower right side of the painting,
and the miniature head of gold emerging above the bride's breasts. The
phallic spear being directed at the bride's genitals has been interpreted as
everything from the probe once used to identify the Devil's mark on the
bodies of witches, to a simple sign of the potency of the stork/heron that
wields the spear. In The Robing Of The Bride, Max Ernst created a glyph
capturing a genuine sense of sex magic's mystery, demonstrating that the
artist's lunar vision has more to tell the magician
than many a stale text of traditional occultism.
