...peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before” Edgar Allan Poe

The Raven (1845) may seem, at first glance, to be a dark poem, and it is, but it is also about devotion, about love, about loving. And to love is to feel, in equal measure, joy and pain. A feeling that anguish, that squeezes the heart and that we would rather always have and lose, than never have had. Like a crow, this “Ghastly grim and ancient Raven”, that comes to torment us - or to help us forget - and that eventually leaves us, like the "Other friends have flown before—On the morrow he will leave me, as my Hopes have flown before.” Photography by Max vom Hofe. Styling by Kat Péneau. Hair by Rimi Ura. Make up by Thomas Lorenz.
