Art/Literary - Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting / Bernini
English term or phrase: flaring
But informal doesn’t quite do it for Costanza, / does it?
How about intimate?
For this is a portrait of a woman / whose passion is written on her face and her body.
Whose flaring temper / just adds fuel to her lover’s fire.




“Informale”, però, non si addice a Costanza!
Che ne pensate di “intimo”?
In fondo si tratta del ritratto di una donna, / la cui passione è scritta sul viso e sul corpo,
il cui temperamento FLARING ravviva la sua fiamma d’amore.
