As for the start of 2021 I am going to start saving regularly art here on Bitcoin.
The Rape of Proserpina by Bernini. It depicts the abduction of Proserpina, who is seized and taken to the underworld by the god Pluto.
Notice the fine details in marble.

I haven’t unlocked the full meaning of this ancient reference except that it is Greco-Buddhist as Persephone means Through (Per) your own self (Se) Sound/Voice (Phony) (compare to English word symphony).

It could be a reference to reincarnation as your own voice gets raped by death (Hades) periodically then you come back & speak again with voice renewed.

Also the way you spelled the Goddess is interesting Proserpina ie For (Pro) the Serpent (Serpina). I think this is a Milky Way reference as is the River Styx you cross into the realm of Hades but also maybe a Greco-Buddhist Kundalini Reference

This piece of art was there the whole time, hidden away in the rock. Waiting to be discoved since the Earth formed. Bernini worked to break away the excess so we could see the story inside.

Amazing details.
