Milan Mourning

from $30.00

The woman covers her face in anguish, forever entombed in this position, a professional mourner of fading flesh in degrading grays, mossy greens and cool blues.

A visit to Milan’s venerable northern cemetery in the cool spring rain: statuary and gravestones soaked through, the damp heightening a sense of mourning and reverence. The masterful sculptors of the late 19th century lend their work a solemn dignity, every figure and column deepening the atmosphere of quiet awe.

Original work painted on archival 100% cotton paper in watercolor.

  • Size 9×12 unframed
