Balaustrata di brezza
Per appoggiare stasera
La mia malinconia.
(An illustration inspired by Italian poet Giuseppe Ungaretti’s 1916 poem “Stasera” (“This Evening”). The text, which was composed while Ungaretti was a soldier in WW1, could be translated more or less as follows: “A balustrade of breeze/This evening upon which to lean/My melancholy.”)
