'Yorick' Study 2 'Swan Song' - Memento Mori.



This study for a momento mori is, after all, just some red wine spilled over paper and for that recalls this quotation from the Rubaiyat of Omar Kayyam

Whether at Naishápúr or Babylon,
Whether the Cup with sweet or bitter run,
The Wine of Life keeps oozing drop by drop,
The Leaves of Life keep falling one by one.

The study was inspired by a stage scene in 'Swan Song' by Anton Chekhov and performed by Blood, Love and Rhetoric in Prague earlier this year.
