		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Freud  rightly senses uncanniness in Leonardo&#8217;s doubling of St. Anne and the Virgin &#8230;. The figures are like photographic superimpositions, two images seen simultaneously, eerie and hallucinatory &#8230;. In Leonardo&#8217;s charcoal cartoon (1499) and finished panel, St. Anne&#8217;s magnetic attentiveness to her companion seems menacingly or lasciviously intense.  Anne&#8217;s blocky fist of a gesture in [...]]]></description>
