Snake Moonlight Limited Edition Print

This illustration is inspired by the gorgeous, exotic beauty Debra Paget doing the snake dance from the 1959 movie, “The Indian Tomb”. Debra, in the movie called Seetha, dances to honor the hindu goddess of snakes Manasa. The dance as an offering serves to keep the goddess contented and to avoid misfortunes as in this case snake bites. Other cultures as the Hopi natives in Arizona, celebrate dancing rituals dedicated to the serpent like the called “snake-antelope”, a rite in which snakes are released in the four directions to seek rain.
