Love between women as allegories in art throughout history

Italia grati alla Francia, ca. 1862. Vincenzo Vela. France receives a kiss from a liberated Italy, whose broken chains lie at her feet.

Italia und Germania, 1828. Johann Friedrich Overbeck. A friendship allegory that symbolizes the artistic ideals of the two, specifically the espousal of early-Renaissance Italian and German art, in the form of a pair of dark- and fair-haired maidens holding hands.

Allegoria della Giustizia e della Pace che si baciano, 1600s. Attributed to Ciro Ferri.

Carità e Giustizia, 1730s. Rosalba Carriera.

I love this painting because she and her husband both just look so damn smug. Lounging on trees and rocks decked out in elegant vestiture: couple goals.
