Nothing provokes the artistic sensibility like grief. Artists have always found a way to combat grave tragedy with grave beauty. Through these expressions of art you see that although grief is a strong and wretched emotion, beautiful works of art can still arise from it. There is a common theme throughout a lot of grief artwork and that is the depiction of people with their head looking down as though they just don’t know what to do anymore.
