Note: I couldn’t choose between melancholy and mythology as both are great themes so I did both.
Melancholy: In the vast canvas of human emotions, sadness is a color skillfully captured and portrayed by artists throughout the ages. From heart-wrenching depictions of personal loss to poignant reflections on the human condition, the world of art has been a sanctuary for expressing the profound melancholy that touches us all. These paintings traverse through time, exploring the brushwork that has immortalized these emotions and allowed us to connect with the universal experiences that make us human.
Choose your favourite painting featuring melancholy
1) John the Baptist in the Wilderness by Geertgen tot Sint Jans (circa 1460–1488)
2) Sweet Melancholy by Joseph-Marie Vien (1756)
3) La Mélancolie by Louis-Jean-François Lagrenée (18th c)

⭐️
Mythology: Artistic reinterpretation of mythology, particularly Greek and Roman mythology, plays a vital role in how these stories have come to be viewed and understood. As art defined mythology, mythology subsequently left its impact on art. With the endless potential for reinterpretation, the stories, figures, and symbols of mythology provide artists with a vast source of symbolic material.

10) Ivan Tsarevich Riding the Grey Wolf by Viktor Vasnetsov
11) Wadatsu Ryūō Tarō Masatatsu with Dragon and Assailant by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1866)
