Untitled (Woman-Bottle), c. 1943

René Magritte

Painting of a figure with a face that seems to be bisected at center and mirrored, with a set of green eyes and a set of red eyes below. Though the figure has one head, it has two bodies: a nondescript male torso at left and a female torso with prominent breasts at right. The background is a uniform blue. A spiny yellow vine suggests a neck at left. At right, another suggested neck features cone-like protrusions identical to the nipples on the female torso.
