In this episode @mookse.bsky.social and l are joined by @lorifeathers.bsky.social, using The Portrait of a Lady as our foundation to explore what makes a work abundant. We move through other examples, asking what defines abundance, how it differs from size or ambition, and why these books matter.

Me: you can love Visconti’s Death in Venice while mocking Werther Dirk:

It’s most important the monster reads Sorrows of Young Werther… yes… however insufferable the mopey fool

But blunderbusses & muskets & not a hint of pitchforks & torches

Homage to Mary

The Visitation 1648 Phillippe de Champaigne. My nominee for best painting in Princeton

My view from the bridge over the Delaware River or was it Helen’s over Troy or was Helen in Egypt and this the Eidolon’s

Re-reading

She should have died hereafter; There would have been a time for such a word. To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. #Macbeth V v #ShakespeareSunday

Princeton’s Avolokiteshvara

There are angels hovering round: sacristy of S. Marco, Basilica of the Santa Casa, Loreto. Painted in 1477 by Melozzo da Forli, angel man, whose day is today.

The sense was constant for her that their relation was as if afloat, like some island of the south, in a great warm sea that made, for every conceivable chance, a margin, an outer sphere of general emotion; #WingsOfTheDove #HenryJames
