1) Who is the artist who painted the attached image?
2) What was the job of the man who wrote the following poem?

"At the beginning of time, the clock struck one
Then dropped the dew and the clock struck two
From the dew grew a tree and the clock struck three
The tree made a door and the clock struck four
Man came alive and the clock struck five
Count not, waste not hours on the clock
Behold I stand at the door and knock."

It's better to be silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt. What's even better is to weaponize your words to destroy anyone who dares challenge you.

I like the question!!!

Was painted by Théodore Géricault’s and was inspired by a "real life tragic" ship desaster:
About voyage of the French Frigate Méduse, carrying around 400 passengers heading to reclaim Senegal from the British.
Unfortunatly it didnt get there cause the frigate ran aground on the Bank of Arguin off the coast of Mauritania in the summer of 1816.

Victor Hugo:
Well i found kind of 10 remarkable work from him, already his first 2 books (Cromwell in 1827 and Hernani in 1830)
have been important in his time but - as you ask about ONE book - i have to decide and guess you mean
LES MISERABLES which is a huge sucess untill recent times, it´s still played as a musical everywhere, i have seen
it not long ago in germany as well... i love it! :love2:
