The Hour of Lead
Original Art by Hilary Clarcq
This 13″ by 19″ oil painting was created for the 2017 Month of Fear challenge, “Shiver.” It was inspired by a poem called “After great pain, a formal feeling comes” by Emily Dickinson. I especially love the following stanza:
This is the Hour of Lead –
Remembered, if outlived,
As Freezing persons, recollect the Snow –
First – Chill – then Stupor – then the letting go –
