Artist's Comments

Down the dark streets she carries her treasure
Far away from her nightlife of pleasure
Holding him for the last time. Until
Her own death, she'll remember him still.

The poem in the painting is 3rd stanza of Pushkin's "Романс" (roh-MAHNS), written in pre-revolutionary Russian, the way the poet had written it. Don't ask me to translate it. I won't.

Damn... that's lovely, Maria! Hell of a job.

What's the text say, if you don't mind my asking?

Thanks for sharing!

[Smokey the Genie pops out, looks in the door quickly, amid more shrieks, then grins at Bugs]

Smokey : "Oh, THAT was a harem, alright! I know a harem when I see one!"

it's Pushkin. i'm afraid i won't translate it for you. translation destroys poetry, and i can't do that to Alexander Sergeevich.
