Thanks to everyone submitting entries!

My profound thanks to [@vevvev] - without him, this collection would look dull - now it's vivid and beautiful!

I got this idea when @klinok linked video below that just begs a poem, IMHO
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCTdr0nSP9Y

“There are not more than five musical notes,
yet the combinations of these five give rise to more melodies than can ever be heard.
There are not more than five primary colours, yet in combination
they produce more hues than can ever been seen.
There are not more than five cardinal tastes, yet combinations of
them yield more flavours than can ever be tasted.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

The only requirement to participate, is your own poem or translation, link to the painting, link to any music of your choice.
I'd love to hear any ideas or suggestions. I count on you to provide a well diversified language selection so we see not only Russian, English, French, but beautiful Japanese, Chinese, etc.

27. Ustym Ladenko - Японское (Yaponskoye) ryska

Painting Seppuku by Pejac
https://www.mutualart.com/Artwork/Seppuku/EB7F7944558E7431

Today, I better understand this poem, so I'm sharing author's take:
" Japanese tradition is not based on suicide, but on honor and purity. If someone committed meanness and lost honor, he can return it through seppuku instead of being executed with shame. Modern society is more hymn to the criminal than to the victim, so too many vile people continue to live and create their meanness. Therefore, although the traditions of Japan, the Caucasus or other similar old cultures seem too brutal to us, they still have a certain meaning. Of course, my song does not call for suicide, but only describes seppuku in a historical context and rather in an ironic manner using the popular Russian song."

33. Pinchus - Памятник Гераклу (Pamyatnik Geraklu) ryska

Continuing our turn from the paintings to sculpture,
An interesting conversation between the poet and the monument. I was struck by the final verse below because I spoke to the fountains and sculptures myself:

Всегда ты поддержишь средь мрака, мой друг для душевных бесед!
