Abstract

Nikoloz Baratashvili felt the soul-deep sadness of romanticism in this way, he discovered a new "poetic language" of word creation; He also shared with us the canon of color language of romanticism with the primordial spiritual balance of the "sky color" or the divine beginning of the expression of soul. Vazha-Pshavela made the range of artistic thinking even deeper and broke through the boundary that existed between Western and Eastern cultures and created a kind of "mystical bond" with the charm of
death.
