Murano, a recent work by the distinguished American poet Mark Doty,
is a contemplative meditation on human mortality and the mystery of
artistic creation. Addressed to his late friend, the poet Lynda
Hull, the musings in Murano are set against the backdrop of Venice
and the glassmaker's art, as practiced for centuries on the island
of Murano in the Venetian lagoon.
This moving poem is illustrated with details of sixteen pieces of
dazzling Murano glass from the collection of the Getty Museum.
These fine, delicate objects paired with Doty's stirring words
create an exceptional visual and verbal experience.
