Die Ertrunkene Prinzessin VI
This painting differs from all others: the joy and exuberance about the secured new life are there no more. The face has a frown, as marked by fears and doubts about the decision of re-birth. Now the figure seems to wonder: "why am I coming back? How did I give my permission to such a crime?"
They say that re-birth is far more painful than death: that’s the exact symbolism of this painting.
