Meaning of pesanta by Felipe Lorenzo del Río





Felipe Lorenzo del Río

pesanta
  97

Black, hairy and heavy mythological animal dog or cat of the Catalan culture which enters at night through the keyhole-shaped or bass sitting on the chest of the sleepers by depressing respiration and doors leading to anguished nightmares. This dreamlike image is associated with the "sleep paralysis", parasomnia reflected in almost all cultures, reflecting the suizo-britanico nineteenth-century painter Henry Fuseli very well in his works.
