Description

This is 1/7 of a multimedia assignment I am doing on the 7 Deadly Sins. I am trying to depict each sin in the manner or style of a different era of the 20th century. 1930s - 90s.

1930s - Lust
1940s - Envy
1950s - Gluttony
1960s - Greed
1970s - Wrath
1980s - Vanity
1990s - Sloth

This is Lust in the 1930s. The colour of lust is blue, I used a blue kimono, as that was a popular fashion in the 1930s, along with a few chinese vases and such to tie it in with the surroundings. There is an apple on the mantle because ... well I'll leave you to figure that one out but I'll give you a clue: Adam and Eve. She is standing in front of the mantle because the punishment in hell for being lustful is to be somthered with fire and brimstone. That's a bit obscure. The reason I chose Passion Flowers is less obscure xD;
I chose to depict Lust in the 1930s because it was a time when Social standards and morals were being redefined. It was a time of revolution, Betty Boop was becoming more popular, the world had sexual icons and speakeasies.
