bookswinalways:This journal illustration was inspired by @palatinamedea ‘s translation of CIL 4.5296, a fragment of Latin graffiti from Pompeii which consists of a love poem from one woman to another. It was inscribed above a doorway before the city was destroyed. My translation is a lot more choppy, so here is a link to their lovely post! Used fineliners, photo references, and old postcard illustrations. -- source link
