"When of that smile we read,
The wished smile, rapturously kiss'd
By one so deep in love, then he, who ne'er
From me shall separate, at once my lips
All trembling kiss'd."
- Dante's Inferno, Canto 5

HBD to Gustave Caillebotte! His images of sailboats on the Seine near Argenteuil were among his most personal, combining his passion for painting & yachting. ‘Voiliers sur la Seine à Argenteuil' (1886) sold by Dickinson depicts his own yacht ‘Cul-blanc’.
