This was a warm up because I am working on two other Giton drawings (don't ask) that are full body compositions and I wanted to do a headshot since the main projects are based on Francesco Pau's looks as Gitone in Polidoro's Satyricon. This film was ROBBED for best hair/makeup/wardrobe in cinema history, I mean felony charges like Grand Theft Fashion or something (see below). I literally have another very similar warmup from the other day based on the exact same scene in the book as this one but it's from one of my old sketchbooks and despite having a different vibe I will have to save it for at least five months from now or it's not fair to the other epheboi I draw

For the bed, wed & behead: d'Alembert, Rousseau, Diderot. (I'm so sorry)

No, thank you, this is actually the easiest one lol

Behead JJ because I am Not picking either of the other options for him, wed Diderot cause he was shockingly well-adjusted for an Enlightenment person (and he gets extra points there for still being normal despite Exposure To Voltaire 😷), and bed d'Alembert because

Gitone

I was introduced to Fellini's Satyricon by @girlpetronius last week. It was mildly traumatic but at least the costuming was so nice and it gave me another femboy to draw. Though he didn't turn out nearly as creepy as I hoped.

Maybe I'll make a proper scan of this later. for now, you get this badly lit photo I took.

33. MORDECAI DU GITON I was blown away by the movement work and dark, moody storytelling of @_mordecai_du_giton_ at Monstrant - if you haven't checked out his show clips you must, his editing and performances are so atmospheric 🦇🩸

ID. A drawing of Mordecai Du Giton on a yellow background with a lighter yellow diamond pattern. Mordecai has pallid grey-purple skin, wild, red ringed eyes with white irises and sharp angled eyebrows. He has shoulder length dark hair, a little moustache, and blood pouring from his mouth.

HELLO??????????? POMEAU BEING THE MOST RIGHT PERSON EVER BY BEING A MORON??????

"Voltaire was well aware that friendship could deteriorate into infamous depravity. He had rubbed shoulders with the world of homosexuality: see [V's accusations against the Jesuits of sexual abuse]. At the very time that he was putting on Œdipe, he was writing verses addressed to the duc de La Feuillade, a notorious 'giton'. But nothing indicates that he himself practiced this kind of relationship. We only know of him having romantic relationships with women. HOWEVER, THE ATTENTION HE PAYS TO GREEK LOVE THROUGHOUT HIS WORK IS UNDOUBTEDLY NOT UNRELATED TO HIS VOCATION FOR FRIENDSHIP."

YES. THANK YOU. his "vocation for friendship" DOES stand out even among the 18thC and it DOES relate to how V thought about "greek love" even if it was never "that kind of relationship"

V describing the Band of Thebes as lovers but not sodomites. V in general not drawing a very strong distinction between friendship and romantic love. etc.
