The Raft of Medusa By Gericault
Incredibly magnificent compare to the rest,
Gericault’s “The Raft of Medusa” is truly the best!
Represents realistic men suffering at the sea,
Horribly incredible when everyone sees
Showing a tragic incident of incredible war,
Sufferings of men are seen in this exemplar
It’s a romantic depiction of reality!
It’s an enchanted art committed to humanity!
A realistic portrayal about survival
Deliciously creepy and sentimental
Looking those men chasing for the raft,
Is a romantic realism that cannot be laughed
