10. Salvador Dali – Young Virgin Auto-Sodomised by the Horns of Her Own Chastity
Dalí painted many of his subjects as composed of rhinoceros horns. Here, the young virgin’s buttocks consist of two converging horns and two horns float beneath; as the horns simultaneously comprise and threaten to sodomise the callipygian figure, she is effectively (auto) sodomised by her own constitution. Dali was never particularly subtle, but this work is a truly gratuitous act of painterly misogyny.
