On his colored canvas
There are jagged secrets too

In the loveliness he stole
As Basil did for Dorian
He covered her sinful soul

In 1888, Oscar Wilde's beautiful The Nightingale and the Rose was first published. Inspired by Persian myth and Hans Andersen, this poignant tale has an underlying motif of how artists' self-sacrifice can remain unnoticed...
