Like I said before @kidsysco, this is one truly excellent drawing. I love the precision of the lines and the well planed composition. Also the different approach it adds to the theme of the card. I always understood it as an already "accomplished" love, a couple that has already found each other.
Fabio Ruotolo leaves that open. We do not know, if the young Lady is expecting her lover or if he just found her this very moment. I also like the yin yang I think I see in it.
He, in the light, active, above (sort of in the air)...
She, towards the shadow, calm, below (water)...
Also the way, "weight" is distributed is truly masterful. More empty areas balanced with spaces full of carefully crafted detail... I'm sure you can explain it a lot better :-)
Thanks a lot for sharing this gem with me!
I am not sure I could have said it better myself! Fantastic analysis! It is going to be really neat having you around @reinhard-schmid!
