Giorgione as Femdom painter

Sleeping Venus, 1510
Three pictures of Venetian Renaissance painter Giorgione (1478-1510) complete the full Ds universe for me. Outstretched figure of his beautiful Venus represents the nature itself, Her sleep implies dreaming and ability to transport reality into another world of magical love. Originally the Venus was accompanied by a small figure of Cupid, but he was - quite significantly - painted over in 1843.
Judith, 1504
Judith and Woman with a Unicorn paintings shows both poles of Ds relationship, cruel and hurtful domination and calming power full of emotions.
Woman with a Unicorn, 1500
Do you know better illustration of Femdom relationship in art? Giorgione's Judith is not Judith from Bible, there is no reference to Her biblical story and also Holofernes is not dead. Just look carefully into these two faces...
