acrylic on canvas
18 X 18 in.
Of the Nature of the Moon
Though night be dark there is a light assured:
See that thou use it not unworthily.
Two days and nights its features are obscured,
Worn soothly by revolving ; presently
Tis seen again but pallid, thin, and backed,
Like one who by the pangs of love is racked.
Ferdowsi
