βTo be a man is, precisely, to be responsible. It is to feel shame at the sight of what seems to be unmerited misery. It is to take pride in a victory won by one's comrades. It is to feel, when setting one's stone, that one is contributing to the building of the world.β β Antoine de Saint-ExupΓ©ry, Wind, Sand and Stars
The winds are burdened by the utterly awful stink of evil, selfish goings-on. Thunderstorms menace. The air belches out the filthy uncleanliness of the peoples.

'Tristan and Isolde' by John Duncan (1866β1945) πΈ
The Celtic legend of Tristan and Isolde is a tale of forbidden love. John Duncan depicts the moment right before the pair drink the fateful love potion βοΈ.
Duncan was a leading figure in the Celtic Revival movement in Scottish art. Common themes in his work include mythology, Celtic folklore and Arthurian legends. His interest in Celtic design is clear from the range of knotwork and scroll patterns in the painting.
Duncan also found inspiration in the early Italian Renaissance. This is reflected in his use of tempera in this painting and other works.
