Llegó con tres heridas: la del amor, la de la muerte, la de la vida. Con tres heridas viene: la de la vida, la del amor, la de la muerte. Con tres heridas yo: la de la vida, la de la muerte, la del amor.

No eches de menos un destino más fácil, Tus pies sobre la tierra antes no hollada, Tus ojos frente a lo antes nunca visto.

Lady with a Cigarette. Carl Schweninger, Jr. (Austrian, 1854-1903). Oil on wood. 

Schweninger Jr was the son of eminent German painter Carl Schweninger. Schweninger junior was his pupil, but he also studied the figure at the Vienna and Munich Academies. His works charmingly reflect the fin de siécle lifestyle, part of which was also the manifestation of feminism, as depicted in this painting.
