Illustrations by Martine MacDonaldPoem by Wallace StevensSince its publication in Others: A Magazine of the New Verse in 1917, and later in the 1923 publication of Harmonium, "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird" by Wallace Stevens has captivated readers with its sparse and elegant style. Among those enchanted with the poem is artist Martine MacDonald, who designed original illustrations as black "paper cuts" mounted on white paper, the images reduced to simplified elements of shape and space. The result is a delightful visual echo to Stevens's modernistic writing.
