Gone are the fresh, bright colors of my youth.
For I have grown weary of this loveless world,
and my palette has gone dry.
Oh, but art! Art is the balm.

Autoritratto

Sono finiti i colori freschi e brillanti della mia giovinezza.
Perché mi sono stancato di questo mondo senza amore,
e la mia tavolozza si è asciugata.
Oh, ma arte! L'arte è il balsamo.
