The painting below is by the Italian artist Duccio, from 1308-1311 A.D. “Note how the size of the food, bread, and plates on the table compare with the size of the heads of Jesus and his disciples,” compared to later versions of The Last Supper.

Emily Dickinson was born in 1830 and died in 1886. The Poetry Foundation describes her as “A poet who took definition as her province, Emily Dickinson challenged the existing definitions of poetry and the poet’s work. Like writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Walt Whitman, she experimented with expression in order to free it from conventional restraints.” Read more of Emily Dickinson’s biography on Poetry Foundation.
