This print titled "Love, Desire and Death" by Georges Barbier takes us back to the enchanting world of courtly love in medieval times. The image showcases a beautifully illustrated scene, reminiscent of an original manuscript illustration. In this romantic setting, a lady is seen playing the violin while a swallow gracefully flies above her. A maiden and her lover stand close together, their eyes locked in deep affection. A unicorn stands nearby, symbolizing purity and innocence. This artwork captures the essence of courteous love, brotherly love, true love - all aspects of this complex emotion that has fascinated humanity for centuries. Barbier's intricate use of inks with mixed media brings life to every detail within the composition. The colors are vibrant yet delicate, enhancing the dreamlike atmosphere surrounding these characters.
