Description

Based on the poem "The Highwayman" we all read in school - (google it, very romantic and bloody) Ink and watercolor.

"He rose upright in the stirrups; he scarce could reach her hand,
But she loosened her hair i' the casement! His face burnt like a brand
As the black cascade of perfume came tumbling over his breast;
And he kissed its waves in the moonlight..."

I both love and hate this poem. It's so beautiful and yet so sad.
