The images call up connections between them, often unexpected ones - some intriguing juxtapositions!

Make me chaste (continent), but not yet, was I believe he wrote. No fool he.
There's so much here to comment upon, I don't know where to start. I feel like that snail on the couch, a little overwhelmed by so much wit and wisdom.

Lovely breviary, at any rate.

We need a comment generator, Sarah. I do think of appending my own comments sometimes, but that would be a crazy hall of mirrors.

Now you’ve pointed it out, Stoker, I can see the symmetry between them. That’s completely unplanned, which is nice. The right corner is the death mask ( he made it while he was alive) of Andre Breton, so all the unconscious processes are coming together.

I’m growing into my computer generated Artist’s Statement nicely.

This looks fabulously tortured, Steve, and does anyone really want a death mask?

What am I thinking? They're dead, opinions no longer apply.
