What better way to conclude the list than with Gabriele Pennacchioli's beautifully melancholic piece capturing a girl in the midst of her heartbreak? Whilst the reason for her heartbreak isn't evident in the illustration this just draws you deeper into the ominously perplexing piece as you get drawn into the pensive emotion that has been so poignantly depicted. Whilst a tear may be falling from the girl's eye her posture exudes pure strength, her chin is still held high, boldly proving that tears don't equate to weakness.
The coastal background is yet another example of Gabriele's playful experimentation with the symbolism of water and healing. Her tears are literally a drop in the ocean, how utterly genius is that? If you're not moved by this piece you may as well consider yourself as dead inside.
