Memento Tapestries
Description: Beautifully dark and gothic pen and ink hand-drawn illustration of 13th century Memento Mori poetry. Animals die, friends die, and thyself, too, shall die; but one thing that never dies are the tales of the one who died. This beautiful stoic philosophy poetry gives me hope, even though if we all are going to die, if we live our lives to the fullest our tales will live forever.
