To Villiers de l'Isle Adam


This is my illumination of a poem by Verlaine. I got it from the book "l'Amour Bleu" by Cecile Beurdeley. I believe the translation into English is by Michael Taylor. The original art work is in watercolor and colored pencil on Arches watercolor paper, 14 by 20 inches (35 by 50 centimeters). The text is written in gouache using a steel nib calligraphy pen.
