The Little Black Boy & Madonna of Port Lligat


I think that the word that appears in the poem, for me, is “Eternity”, because the mother is telling to her son that in heaven, in other words, when he dies, he will be in another place, where God lives and all the people look the same. What she said to her son is a brief definiton of the Eternal Life according to the Catholic church that is why I chose this word.

I chose Madonna of Port Iligat by Dali, because in the poem the mother knows that there is something bothering to her little black boy, so she tries to protect him telling him those things. In the painting the boy is inside the belly of his mother, so the boy is being protected by the mother, because it does not exist a safer place in earth for a son, because there he / she has the protection of the mother, no one can touch him / her.
