The Scarlet Letter
Adulteress Hester Prynne must wear a scarlet A to mark her shame. Her lover, Arthur Dimmesdale, remains unidentified and is wracked with guilt, while her husband, Roger Chillingworth, seeks revenge. The Scarlet Letter's symbolism helps create a powerful drama in Puritan Boston: a kiss, evil, sin, nature, the scarlet letter, and the punishing scaffold.
Death of Sardanapalus, 1827
This artwork connects to my author by show how love kills. True love isn't all about happiness and sunshine. Love can be as dark as a nightmare and,as deadly as a murder.
(No name)
Love can be pure evil. You can die of a heart break, not a big deal since everyone dies.The woman in this painting isn't fighting for her life with the demon since she would have eventually passed on
Go to the Grave
O to the grave where friends are laid,
And learn how quickly mortals fade,
Learn how the fairest flower must droop
,Learn how the strongest form must stoop,
Learn that we are but dust and clay,
The short-liv'd creatures of a day.
Yet do not sigh -- there is a clime,
Where they will dwell through endless time,
Who here on earth their Maker serve,
And never from his precepts swerve.
The grave to them is but a road,
That leads them to that blest abode
