The monk [art original]

Drawing of a scene from the gothic novel The Monk: A romance by Matthew Gregory Lewis. Ambrosio, a Spanish monk seemingly into his moral downfall, approaches Matilda either aggressively or lustfully with both arms raised in the air, a serious countenance on his face. Standing to his left Maltida (first known as Rosario) is wearing the same simple monks' robes as Ambrosio though she has pulled the top aside to expose her bosom and pulled of her hood to reveal her long curly blonde hair and feminine features
