Dear Ms. Sparks,
I was hunting for images of manuscripts of Horace, and I found your painting of the Exegi monumentum from your Painted Word exhibition in 2000. It’s a beautiful and touching piece of work. My students and I will start reading Horace’s Odes together this Jan. (2013), and I wanted you to know that I will show them pictures of the oldest surviving mss and end with yours.
Sincerely,
Holt Parker
