Title
The Court House Night
Artist
Matt Konar
Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
Directly behind the courthouse is Ophiucus, (meaning the serpent held) with the stars: Saif, "the bruised"; Mageros, "contending", and Triophas, "treading underfoot" Ophiucus is wrestling with the constellation Serpens “the serpent”. The constellation on the horizon to the right of the courthouse is Scorpio with the stars: Antares, "the rival of Ares - Mars the planet of war"; Lesath, "the perverse - in the tail of the scorpion". Directly above Scorpio is Libra with the stars: Zuben al Genubi, "the price deficient"; Zuben al Chemali, "the price which covers"; Zuben Akrabi, "the price of the conflict". Above and between Libra and the head of Serpens is constellation Corona “the crown” ~ Serpens is trying to grasp the crown but it is destined for the constellation partially shown in the upper right corner, “Bootes” the good shepherd. There are a few other constellations that can be seen in the painting but the great Orion is not in this painted sky. Note: 1. The names of the stars are in Hebrew or Persian. Note: 2. The constellations and stars would not necessarily be seen behind the Auburn Courthouse from this angle but they are appropriate to represent the drama of the times.
