The Romantic Death of Painting — or Painting Death Itself? 🎨
Is painting dead? Or does it keep returning through the very subject it has long obsessed over: death?

"She wandered through dusty libraries and cobblestone streets, finding magic in forgotten pages and poetry in quiet moments. In a world that rushed, she chose the beauty of stillness, the whisper of old books, and the elegance of a simple life."

My articles on Dark Academia:
The library whispers secrets between the pages, and the scent of cold coffee lingers with the ink of unsent letters. Outside, the rain taps against gothic windows, while inside, the flickering candlelight brings forgotten verses back to life.
Today, melancholy wears thick wool and walks barefoot through stone corridors. It hides between dusty bookshelves, underlining passages in an old copy of "The Brothers Karamazov."
A reminder: live as if you were a character in a 19th-century novel. Write letters, study philosophers, learn Latin for no reason at all, and most of all… love the tragic beauty of knowledge.
