PURPLE FIG

What would you do if it were your last night on earth? For Johann Friedrich Struensee, doomed doctor of the Danish court, it meant a picnic with his love and their friends on the last night before his death. As always, champagne and figs, his favourite fruit, were on the menu, as dusk turned the sky purple. Joy and tears, sorrow and laughter, a bitter-sweet cocktail that lives on in this Purple Fig.
