William Blake: 'The Ghost Of Samuel Appearing To Saul'. #PhantomsFriday #WilliamBlake #Blake #ghost #ghosts #Romanticism #artsky

Upon the Absent Beloved

I bless the hour, though it wounded me,
when first my eyes were taught to look and grieve,
and every joy I thought my heart could weave
was turned to golden thread of misery.

For Beauty came, and with her majesty
made captive all I had believed was free;
yet in that chain my soul learned how to see
the heaven hidden in captivity.

O gentle light, too distant to be mine,
you burn within me like a sacred flame;
I flee from you, yet follow all the same.

Thus love makes bitter water into wine:
I die of longing, yet I live by this—
the wound itself has taught my heart its bliss.

Author’s Note: My attempts at a poem in the style of Petrarch

Spent a good deal of time browsing the Smithsonian's online collection of works from George Catlin's Indian Gallery.

These pictures have long fascinated me. They could be fitted into so many histories: American Indians, romanticism, portraiture, Western art, US art, colonialism, antebellum US history...

"Partridges in Snow," Józef Chełmoński, 1891.

Chełmoński (1849-1914) was a Polish painter known for his realistic landscapes and romanticized scenes of life in Poland.

Born when there really was no Poland as a country; it was partitioned among Austria, Russia, and Prussia after being defeated in war. He lived his entire life without seeing his country unified, but we know from his writings and his work that he was one of many who loved his country and sought to see it reunified and again a sovereign nation, which didn't happen until a few years after his death.

Chełmoński's daughter said he loved to watch partridges near his home in the region of Mazovia, and this reflects his observations. They're almost photographic in detail. This is regarded as one of his greatest works, for the sheer quality and simplicity.

Under the reunified Poland, Chełmoński's work is regarded as a national treasure. Over 100 of his paintings are missing; possibly looted by the Nazis and are yet to be recovered.

From the National Museum in Warsaw.

Awake! Awake Jerusalem! O lovely Emanation of Albion
Awake and overspread all Nations as in Ancient Time
For lo! the Night of Death is past and the Eternal Day
Appears upon our Hills: Awake Jerusalem, and come away

William Blake, Jerusalem: The Emanation of the Giant Albion, Plate 97.

La Belle Dame sans Merci by Sir Francis Bernard Dicksee isn’t just a painting—it’s a story of love, beauty, and betrayal told in color and detail.

I’ve written a personal reflection on why this work still resonates today. If you’ve ever been enchanted (or undone) by beauty, this one’s for you.

Musical Interlude: Let me wisk you off to the concert hall, where we'll hear the overture to the opera "Euryanthe," which is almost never performed as while the music is good, the libretto blows.

"Euryanthe Overture," composed by Carl Maria von Weber, performed by the Frankfurt Radio Symphony, conducted by Daniel Smith.
