Non est ad astra mollis e terris via
( latin,Seneca)
 
There is no easy way from the earth to the stars 
(Seneca)
 
A contemplative and philosophical painting about the bleak and unjust fate, this time, in the context of art. The eternal story of the artist's futile efforts to reach the stars, instead receiving recognition after death, and even then, if lucky... The dead beautiful creature is an allegorical depiction of the artist, to whom someone has scattered some flowers after death. The fact that you will never give up does not mean that you will ever achieve anything.
