Allegorical Portrait of an Artist
Attributed to Michiel van Musscher
c. 1680-85
(Note to reader: I find a picture I like and write a poem about what I see. Hope you enjoy)
This is what I see…Felina Silver Robinson
Wrapped in a long white dress
With baby blue trimming
And my
Gold medal
Resting proudly on my chest
In my art loft
Filled with pieces of all that I am
Cherubs
Knick·knacks
Fruits
And
Flowers
I sit upon my artist chair
Painting for you this floral portrait
So all can sit and stare
From their very own artist chair
