Narcissus

Available via Antonio Colombo Gallery / Milan

Narcissus hated the desperate lustful looks he received but then fell in love with himself once he saw his reflection in a pond:

‘These persisting longing looks cast upon me, I find repulsive.
But in the mirror, I see the most captivating, exquisite youth.
He is staring back with fondness.
Bestowed with a harmonious virile anatomy, I am irresistible.
Like a glistening rivulet descending down the mountain on a torrid day.’
