Dürer's Melancholy

Sep 12, 2017
1 min read

I am honoured to be published in The Geneva Writers' Literary Magazine

"Offshoots 14" with a sonnet dedicated to Dürer's etching "Melancholia"

in which he depicts the state of melancholy personified by a maiden

who is pensive, sad, almost tormented by her melancholy, troubled

by the philosophical enigmas that she ponders. The etching is full of

alchemical symbols and also depicts the painter's tools used for his

etchings and paintings.
