"Bodas de Sangre" - F.G. Lorca

"Bodas de Sangre" is a very important tragedy in spanish literature, written by Federico García Lorca. For my Final Project, I decided to do a series of images about this story, with a very andalusian and catholic influence.
The cover is inspired in this verse, which appears in the play and very much summarize what the tragedy is about:
"Duérmete, rosal,
que el caballo se pone a llorar.
Las patas heridas,
las crines heladas,
dentro de los ojos
un puñal de plata.
Bajaban al río.
¡Ay, cómo bajaban!
La sangre corría
más fuerte que el agua."
