Truth, Beauty and Imagination

 


A venue based out of Bangladesh with this name published a poem of mine called Motif Romanesque. It was influence by the painting of a similar name, done by the artist Maurice Denis. Denis was part of a late 19th - early 20th century art movement called Les Nabis. In case the names haven't given it away yet, they were French. The name was derived from a Hebrew word for prophets. They saw themselves as a rejuvenating force in art.
