I'm still alive! I just have a queue of a few big pieces, but I have been doing some thrifting to help clear my head. Interestingly enough I find some neat things every now and again. Like this bust of William Shakespeare

📖 "Othello" by William Shakespeare made my day beautiful. 🌞

I really love the character Iago. 😈
And his dialogue — "I am not what I am." 🎭🖤

— Othello?
— Nah, he's overrated.
Iago is the real hero. 🔥👑

William Shakespeare by John Taylor. Shakespeare is depicted with a high forehead, dark eyes, and a trimmed moustache and goatee. His dark, curled hair is shoulder-length, and he wears a black doublet with a soft white collar and a gold earring in his left ear—a detail that adds a touch of artistic flair and Elizabethan style. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Shakespeare#/media/File:William_Shakespeare_by_John_Taylor,_edited.jpg Anonymous portrait, possibly of Marlowe, at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. It depicts a young man, thought by some scholars to be Marlowe, at the age of 21, wearing a richly patterned black doublet embroidered with gold thread in a swirling vine motif—typical of late 16th-century fashion. The subject has dark, curled hair, a fine complexion, and a direct, confident gaze. Above the figure, a Latin inscription reads: "Quod me nutrit me destruit" (“That which nourishes me destroys me”)—a phrase associated with dangerous intellect and intense passion, further fueling speculation that the portrait may represent Marlowe.
