LangdonвЂ™s explanation of this symbol seems largely correct, if oversimplified. The dominant image in the chapter-drawn on SauniГЁreвЂ™s stomach in his own blood, and replicated by the way in which he positioned his nude body before dying-is the pentacle. Meanwhile, Agent Collet has sequestered himself in SauniГЁreвЂ™s office, listening to and secretly recording Langdon and FacheвЂ™s conversation.ДЄnalysis: This chapter presents further exhibitions of LangdonвЂ™s symbological prowess now, however, Brown is moving us toward the mystery at hand. The message that is revealed (but not yet to readers) when Fache shines a black light over the crime scene delivers a further shock to the already stunned Langdon. Fache points out that the dead curator is clutching a black-light marker.

SauniГЁreвЂ™s body position doubles, or reinforces, the pentacle. Langdon tells Captain Fache that the pentacle is an ancient pre-Christian religious symbol, indicative of the feminine principle of religion. On his stomach, SauniГЁre had painted in blood a pentacle (a five pointed star). Summary: In the Grand Gallery of the Louvre, Langdon examines SauniГЁreвЂ™s nude corpse, still sprawled in the spread-eagle fashion that the victim himself arranged.
