Nichts Bleibt Für Die Ewigkeit
"Nichts bleibt für die Ewigkeit" (''Nothing remains for eternity'') is a song by Die Toten Hosen. It's the first single and the sixth track from the album ''Opium fürs Volk''. Lyrically the song is a reminder of how time goes by fast and that people think too much about future. The cover of the single shows a detail of a painting by Andrea Mantegna, " Lamentation over the Dead Christ", which can be seen as an illustration to the lyrics.

Lamentation Over The Dead Christ (Mantegna)
The ''Lamentation of Christ'' (also known as the ''Lamentation over the Dead Christ'', or the ''Dead Christ'' and other variants) is a painting of about 1480 by the Italian Renaissance artist Andrea Mantegna. While the dating of the piece is debated, it was completed between 1475 and 1501, probably in the early 1480s. It portrays the body of Christ supine on a marble slab. He is watched over by the Virgin Mary, Saint John and St. Mary Magdalene weeping for his death. Mantegna may have made this painting for his personal funerary chapel. It was found by his sons in his studio after his death and sold off to pay debts. The painting is now in the Pinacoteca di Brera of Milan, Italy. Theme The theme of the Lamentation of Christ is common in medieval and Renaissance art, although this treatment, dating back to a subject known as the ''Anointing of Christ'', is unusual for the period. Most ''Lamentations'' show much more contact between the mourners and the body. Rich contra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Opium Fürs Volk
''Opium fürs Volk'' (''Opium for the people'') is the seventh studio album by the German punk band Die Toten Hosen. Although it's not considered a concept album, it has a central theme of religion (exemplified by the intro "Vaterunser", "Die zehn Gebote" and " Paradies"). It is regarded as one of the best Die Toten Hosen albums. The title is derived from a common misquotation of Karl Marx, who called religion the Opium of the People - ''Opium des Volkes''.

Andrea Mantegna
Andrea Mantegna (, , ; September 13, 1506) was an Italian painter, a student of Roman archeology, and son-in-law of Jacopo Bellini. Like other artists of the time, Mantegna experimented with perspective, e.g. by lowering the horizon in order to create a sense of greater monumentality. His flinty, metallic landscapes and somewhat stony figures give evidence of a fundamentally sculptural approach to painting. He also led a workshop that was the leading producer of prints in Venice before 1500. Biography Youth and education Mantegna was born in Isola di Carturo, Venetian Republic close to Padua (now Italy), second son of a carpenter, Biagio. At the age of 11, he became the apprentice of Paduan painter Francesco Squarcione. Squarcione, whose original profession was tailoring, appears to have had a remarkable enthusiasm for ancient art, and a faculty for acting. Like his famous compatriot Petrarca, Squarcione was an ancient Rome enthusiast: he traveled in Italy, and perhaps a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
