Le génie du mal (installed 1848) or The Genius of Evil, known informally in English as Lucifer or The Lucifer of Liège
It is located within the elaborate pulpit of St. Paul’s Cathedral, Liège, and depicts a classically beautiful man in his physical prime, chained, seated, and nearly nude but for drapery gathered over his thighs, his full length ensconced within a mandorla of bat wings. Guillaume Geefs’ work replaces an earlier sculpture created for the space by his younger brother Joseph Geefs, which was removed from the cathedral because of its distracting allure and “unhealthy beauty.”

About

I generally will not reblog any image if the poster does not credit the artist or photographer. And I refuse to follow those that are generally too lazy or selfish to give credit. __________________________

Found a great word that the English language greatly needs. I like the word enough that I named this blog after it and it seems appropriate since this blog tends to feature the human form of both genders.

The word is XYE. It replaces the s/he or he/she that most people stumble over.

Instead of using s/he or he/she consider using xye. Xye is the gender-neutral reference to the third person singular. Xye is the gender-neutral singular form of they.

When himself or herself is not proper because of a question of gender, one should use xyeself.
