Description

The painting captures Romeo’s emotional state at the beginning of the story. He’s clearly tormented by an attraction that seems to focus more on the physical than on the spiritual essence of the person he desires. It’s an expressionist portrait that highlights the deeper, introspective aspects of the young man.
