Geoffrey Chaucer took lovebirds as his inspiration in his 1382 poem "Parlement of Foules" to honor the union of King Richard II of England and Anne of Bohemia:
"For this was on seynt Volantyns dayWhan euery bryd comyth there to chese his make.
He was the first to link the martyr "St. Valentine" with love, and thus perhaps our modern annual ritual of Valentine's day. Lovebird behaviors such as snuggling, preening, feeding, and pining for each other bear witness to their deserved name. This four-part set of magical lovebirds heightens their sense of warmth in the heart of the viewer with their noble grace.

In fact, Lido de Venezia, an 11-kilometre sandbar off the southern tip of Venice, was one of Europe’s most acclaimed destinations for gathering sea shells, which inspire this composition.

A digitally remastered print from a renowned celestial chart series first published in 1835—a landmark collaboration between astronomer E.H. Burritt and engraver W.G. Evans. Together, they created The Geography of the Heavens, a dramatic atlas that blended classical mythology with modern science to bring the stars within reach for a generation of Americans.

Burritt—often called the “Carl Sagan” of his day—was a gifted popularizer of astronomy. His charts paired the precise positions of stars and planets with the mythological stories that gave them meaning, bridging science and storytelling in a way that still resonates. Each chart invites the viewer to see the cosmos not just as a map, but as a narrative—where motion, myth, and meaning converge.

The mandala (literally "circle" in Sanskrit) is a metaphysical representation of the universe.While typically associated with Hinduism and Buddhism, mandalas also feature prominently with deep symbolic meaning in Christian art and motifs, as exemplified by the Celtic cross, the rosary, rose windows, the halo, communion wafers, the crown of thorns.
This composition (along with its complement, Venice Mandala) is inspired by the delicate Florentine and Venetian lacework of the late renaissance where the desire for the enrichment of ordinary features manifested itself in embroideries of silk with gold or silver threads.

In the words of the medieval theorist Kepler, "It is clearly evident that most events of a widespread nature draw their causes from the enveloping heavens."  What the ancients defined as "influx" thus became transformed into our modern vocabulary as "influence."
Who could possibly forget the fabled "star crossed lovers" of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, or these words from the Tempest:
My zenith doth depend uponA most auspicious star, whose influenceIf now I court not but omit, my fortunesWill ever after droop.This print embodies the mysticism of the pre-scientific age and invites the viewer to experience its wonder, and serves as a tangible reminder of the power of "influence."
