Symbolism in 60 Seconds Leonora Carrington’s The Lovers

What if love wasn’t safe, but transformative — even unsettling?

In Leonora Carrington’s The Lovers (c. 1947), intimacy isn’t painted as romance, but as metamorphosis. Two hybrid figures, part human, part spirit, embrace in a dark, dreamlike space. Their forms twist and dissolve, showing us that to truly connect is to change — to surrender one self and become something new.

Carrington’s vision of love is both beautiful and dangerous: mystery, transformation, and risk bound together.
