This drawing ist meant to dig into the fragility of beauty. The rose petals are abstracted to a paperthin-like look, to symbolize their fineness. The thorns are presented as harsh lines and pointed towards the flower, speaking for the harm beauty can have on one itself with the self defense mechanism it entails sometimes.
