[arnaeus]

just a doodle of the snakey boi to commemorate that hella Virgil paper we sat - is the Aeneid more of a masterpiece than the Iliad? Probably not, but Book Two sure is.

Patton: *eating pizza* Hey look we got so hungry we ate our bread/plate/table things.

Roman: *gasp* The prophecy.

Virgil, also the author: *guitar solo*

Litographs does prints, totes, and shirts of book text.

That's not so unusual, but what is unique, in my opinion, is what a great understanding they actually show of the text, and how well designed they are. 

THis set: Pygmalion (front and back), The Aneid, Gulliver's Travels, The History of Creation, The Kama Sutra, A Little Princess, Romeo and Juliet, Wealth of Nations, Count of Monte Cristo

(Seriously though - how perfect is the Pygmalion one?!)

'Si genus humanum et mortalia temnitis arma, ¶ At sperate Deos memores fandi atque nefandi.'

Virgil in The Aneid, qtd. by Russell Kirk in The Conservative Mind
