In the first stage of castlevania chronicles, there is a giant painting were we can see there are some people along with a dog/cat some distance away from the castle. Who are they?

Why was it so much a better remake of CV1 than Super Castlevania Bros, lads?

strange that they are so far away from the castle.

I've looked into this before, but have never found the exact painting they sourced the figures from. My best guess is that it depicts Venus and Adonis, but it could possibly also be Venus and Mars or Sylvia and Corydon. It could even just be random shepherd lovers from a pastoral scene.

In the game's world I would imagine it depicts Count Dracula seducing a Transylvanian country maiden.

"Young soul, put off your flesh, and come
With me into the quiet tomb,
Our bed is lovely, dark, and sweet;
The earth will swing us, as she goes,
Beneath our coverlid of snows,
And the warm leaden sheet."

Yep, australia-kun's autism at its finest. You're not a castlevania fan.

I liked Akumajyo Densetsu somewhat (not the butchered Americunt version), but it still doesn't hold a candle to the likes of TNG, X68000, or Amigavania.

Weak. If you're going to be mentally ill about nintendo, then be mentally ill all the way through.
You're admiting to liking a game on a nintendo console auster, you're a total cuck even within your own autistic mental gymnastics.

I doubt it's intended to depict anybody, to be honest. Aspects of it could have been lifted from a specific print or painting (like the gestures), but I'd say it's just a lovers pastoral pastiche. It's an extremely common scene (Boucher made a career out of them) and Dracula's castle is shoved into the background. I don't think they were putting that much thought into it.

It's just a shame that AkuDen never got the Amiga treatment to make it actually good like the first CV game did.
