Karl Kaufmann | Landscape painter
Karl Kaufmann (1843-1902) started his artistic education at the Academy of Vienna. He subsequently travelled through European countries, such as Norway, the Netherlands, Germany or Italy.
Kaufmann developed a sensitive feeling for environments and atmospheres, which helped him to specialise in landscape and architectural painting.
One special feature of his oeuvre is his habit to sign his works with pseudonyms.
For instance, the names 'B. Lambert', 'Charles Marchand' or 'C. Charpentier' are well-known signatures by Kaufmann. The majority of his works belongs to private collections.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti | The Sonnet / Il sonetto
The Sonnet
A Sonnet is a moment's monument,-
Memorial from the Soul's eternity
To one dead deathless hour. Look that it be,
Whether for lustral rite or dire portent,
Of its own intricate fulness reverent:
Carve it in ivory or in ebony,
As Day or Night prevail; and let Time see
Its flowering crest impearled and orient.
