In William Blake's "Great Red Dragon" series of paintings, there are two with very similar names. The novel "Red Dragon," by Thomas Harris, uses the title of one painting ("The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed with the Sun"), but in describing the image, gives a description of another ("The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed in Sun"). Due to the muddled reference, the first adaptation of the novel, Manhunter - Frammenti di un omicidio (1986), Francis Dolarhyde is obsessed with the painting that Harris cites by name, while this movie features the painting as described by Harris, which is a back view of the dragon with his tail wrapped around the woman.
