"Poetess: A Journey Through Time and Imagination" Step into the world of poetry, where words dance on the pages like melodies. From Sappho's lyrical verses to the House of Muses' enchanting tales, immerse yourself in the beauty of poetic expression. In a captivating black and white photo from 1930, Albert Einstein and Rabindranath Tagore engage in an intellectual conversation, proving that poets can ignite scientific minds. Athena guides Telemachus through his search for Odysseus in a vibrant lithograph, reminding us that even ancient myths were woven by poet's hands. Homer, the legendary Greek poet behind the Iliad and Odyssey, comes alive in an intricate engraving from 1731. The meeting between Andromache and Astyanax before Hektor goes to war is captured with emotion and depth in another striking engraving. Sir W Raleigh's "The History of the World" takes us back to 1614 with its monochromatic photograph. Meanwhile, Thomas Gray's poems come alive through delicate watercolor paintings - "The Fatal Sisters" depicting haunting visions while "The Triumphs of Owen" exudes strength. William Blake's Songs of Innocence transports us to a realm where innocence reigns supreme. "On Another's Sorrow" evokes empathy while "Nurse's Song" brings forth memories of childhood laughter. In contrast, "A Cradle" lulls us into peaceful slumber as we explore these timeless works. Finally, we encounter Songs of Innocence’s title page – a relief etching bursting with colors that invite readers into this magical collection. Join us on this journey through time as we celebrate the power and grace wielded by these remarkable poetesses throughout history. Let their words inspire your own creative spirit as you embark on your own poetic odyssey.
