Walking through the Saint Louis Museum of Art inspired me to go through my "Home Book of Art" printed in the 1850s and use parts of an engraving of a painting as the focal elements of this piece. It is called "Florentine Poet" based on the painting's title. I tried to evoke the elegance of the place and time with the papers I chose; I also used a page out of the book describing the painting and the de Medicis of Florence.
