Thirteen Ways Of Looking At A Blackbird

Fri, 24 May 2013 00:18:09 -0700

V
I do not know which to prefer,
The beauty of inflections
Or the beauty of innuendoes,
The blackbird whistling
Or just after.

-Wallace Stevens

Andrea del Sarto, Various studies, c.1520’s

Son of a tailor (sarto). Andrea became one of the best loved artists of Florence. Vasari had good things to say about him.

…Andrea del Sarto, in whose single person Nature and art showed all that painting can achieve by means of drawing, colouring and invention: and indeed if Andrea had possessed a little more boldness and daring of spirit, to match his very profound judgement and talent as a painter, he would, there is no doubt at all, have been without equal.

Browning wrote poems about him:

Ah, but a man’s reach should exceed his grasp,
Or what’s a heaven for?

His drawings are natural, graceful and sensitive, an excellent draughtsman.

…and he was very much in love with his wife… (something we don’t often hear about Renaissance artists!)

There’s a certain Slant of light
Winter Afternoons –
That oppresses, like the Heft
Of Cathedral Tunes –

Heavenly Hurt, it gives us –
We can find no scar
But internal difference
Where the Meanings, are –

None may teach it – Any –
‘Tis the Seal Despair –
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the Air –

When it comes, the Landscape listens –
Shadows – hold their breath –
When it goes, ‘tis like the Distance
On the look of Death –

-Emily Dickinson

Waitomo Glowworm Caves are a famous tourist attraction because of the large population of fireflies that live in caves. Fireflies, or Arachnocampa luminosa - tiny bioluminescent creatures that produce blue and green light live exclusively in New Zealand.
