The Prince of Poets 1975

I'm re-blogging this image from 1975 because it belongs with my other Corelli drawings. I last showed it in 2008 when this blog was new. This tiny picture is one of my own favorites and the best of my Corelli work, so why not show it again after 11 years. I had a great time depicting the "Victorian Babylon" style that the author described in her overwrought prose. 

Ink and watercolor on thick sketchbook page, 7 1/2" x 4", spring 1975.
