me forcing myself to do things that make me feel better

okay im remembering this painting of like a tiny dog sitting in a big red armchair. and it was painted in 1920 by a german guy and the title was like augustus or claudius or something hearkening back to past imperial grandeur. does anyone know what im talking about searching “german dog sitting in chair painting” just gets me a bunch of bad photoshop novelty wall art ripping off dogs playing poker

Marcel RIEDER (1862-1942) - Jeunes femmes sur la lande au clair de lune

“Perhaps the whole root of our trouble, the human trouble, is that we will sacrifice all the beauty of our lives, will imprison ourselves in totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, which is the only fact we have.”

— James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time
