Through the study of four ecphrases we show new critical prespectives on this rhetorical exercise and the erotic theme. Inspired by an intangible work by Raphael, in "El joven rubio" (1902) Antonio de Zayas imagines a figure of ambiguous and mysterious beauty that responds to the ideal of androgynous. In "La Primavera" (1911), Manuel Machado circumvents the representation of Botticelli's painting to evoke a first adolescent lust. Through "La Venus del espejo" by Velázquez, a master of 27 and a current poet perfom two lyric versions of a very different sign. In the first place, Gerardo Diego projects an attraction between Eros and Thanatos in "La Venus del espejo" (1962); secondly, José Ovejero elaborates a monologue addressed to the Goddes in a present context in "Venus del espejo, durante su breve visita a Madrid" (2012).
