‘Our party at Pisa is the same as when I wrote last — Lord Byron unites us at a weekly dinner where my nerves are generally shaken to pieces by sitting up, contemplating the rest making themselves vats of claret &c. till 3 o'Clock in the morning’ - P B Shelley to H Smith, 25 Jan 1822 The Letters of Percy Bysshe Shelley: Volume II. Published by Clarendon, Oxford (1964) ‘The Triumph of Bacchus’ (c.1628-1629) by Diego Velázquez. Oil on canvas.
