Dear readers and subscribers, this week as I added more poems to our American, French and Russian poetry pages, I included two new poets. The first individual is Stéphane Mallarmé, pen name of Étienne Mallarmé. He was a renowned French poet and critic, notable as a leading figure in the French symbolism movement. His literary works foreshadowed and motivated several groundbreaking artistic movements of the early 20th century, including Cubism, Futurism, Dadaism, and Surrealism. The second Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva was a Russian poetess of the Silver Age, prose writer, and translator. She emerged as one of the most original Russian poets of the 20th century, distinct from any specific literary movement, yet leaving a profound imprint on 20th-century literature.

Each image is hyperlinked to its respective poetry page, and as usual, I have included the roster of new poems for each author. I trust you will discover something to appreciate.

This week our article was “Discover the painting “Over Eternal Peace” by Isaac Levitan“. “Over Eternal Peace” by Isaac Levitan. “Over Eternal Peace” is a magnificent and probably the most famous painting by renowned Russian artist Isaac Levitan, originating from the year 1894 which depicts a “giant reversal of the lake’s water space”, the endless expanses of which resemble a wide-spread river. Above the lake is “a majestic expanse of sky with swirling clouds colliding with each other”. This is no ordinary lyrical landscape, for which Levitan is renowned, but rather a grand epic, where the past converges with the future, the sky looms over the earth, and time stretches towards eternity. …
