Dead Poet Carried by a Centaur | Gustave Moreau | 1890

"Dead Poet Carried by a Centaur" (c. 1890) by Gustave Moreau is a hauntingly beautiful and symbolic painting steeped in myth and emotion. It depicts a solemn centaur gently carrying the lifeless body of a poet, draped in a vivid green cloth, against a surreal, dreamlike landscape bathed in the glow of a setting sun. Rich in detail and color, the work reflects Moreau's fascination with mythological themes and the tragic beauty of artistic sacrifice, blending Romanticism with Symbolist mysticism.
