Behind this painting there’s a very sad story.

Gosh, now I feel like a heel:
“Cupid, the god of love, is shown here trying to force open the door of a mausoleum. Merrit made the picture in memory of her husband, who died within three months of their marriage. Both Merrit and Cupid face the task of conquering death, which they are bound to fail.”
Ban me from your blog for making dumb wisecracks! I will understand. 😦
