as a caption for this painting? Why or why not? Explain your reasoning in one to two well-developed paragraphs. Consider what the painting reveals about Kurtz's insight into his situation and what he means, possibly in his last few moments of clarity and lucidity before he dies, with the words, "The horror! The horror!"
