The theme of this work is the poem „Blue Hydrangeas“ by Rainer Maria Rilke.
„Blue Hydrangeas“ is a object poem, written by Rilke in Paris in 1906.
It describes faded petals that display a washed-out, sad blue colour, comparing them to old stationery and a child‘s apron. But suddenly there ist a cluster of flowers shinging in a vibrant blue.
The poem is about transience and sudden twists and turns that life can take.
