Part 2 of the Ineffable Edition goodies: Portraits of Aziraphale and Crowley made by Leonardo da Vinci (all parts here)

Crowley’s eyes and glasses:

We can see Crowley’s, though a little wider, snake pupils here. He was comfortable enough to have his portrait taken by Leonardo like this. Actually, I’d bet that it was Leonardo himself who made these glasses for him.

Why is that?

It’s because Crowley and Leonardo were friends! Crowley has a sketch of Mona Lisa in his appartment:

and from the bts detailed picture:

we know that the inscription is:

Al mio amico Antonio dal tuo amico Leo da V. meaning To my friend Anthony from your friend Leo da V.

So we know Crowley and Leonardo were friends :).

(It’s quite funny that Crowley spent at least 440 years hiding his chosen name from Aziraphale.)

The Scroll and The Apple:

They are both holding and object.

Crowley’s is the apple, the forbidden fruit, his reminder of the Garden of Eden, where he tempted Eve. You can also check a long article about the symbolism of an apple here. :)

Aziraphale’s is a scroll: Symbol of life and time. Both ends rolled up indicates a life that is unfolding like a scroll of uncertain length and the past and future hidden. Often held by a hand representing life being recorded by angels. Can also suggest honour and commemoration. (x) and An emblem of wisdom and an early emblem of the Apostles. (x) I believe there is a multiple meaning, while it is an object often held by angels with meanings such an honour or wisdom, it’s also personal object for Aziraphale, of his love for knowledge and books (which are the human invention, so perhaps even the humanity itself).

Ombra e Luce:

When you put the two portraits together, you find out that they are actually one large picture!

And what is the one object that is the in both portraits, that is connecting them and that they are both touching?

It’s a book:

The book’s name is OMBRA E LUCE, italian for: SHADOW AND LIGHT. Symbols for Crowley and Aziraphale. 

The background of Crowley’s potrait

The background of the demon’s potrait is the same as Mona Lisa’s!

So, in honor of this historical moment, let’s celebrate our favorite snake on March 17 2020 aka this St. Patrick’s Day!

All snake!Crowley (and naga!Crowley) content is welcome: art, drabbles, fics, comics, edits. The more snakes the better!
