Thel's Motto
- Title
- Thel's Motto
- Student Commentary:
- This plate from The Book of Thel appears either at the beginning or the end, depending on which copy is used as a model. In the facsimile by the Trianon Press published in 1965, it appears at the end. Thel’s motto is a representation of her struggle with questions of mortality and meaning in this book. The art on the plate is rather simple. The script is in a copper tone with the name Thel in large capital letters towards the top of the plate. Gentle, pastel-colored strokes of paint surround the poetry and extend towards the corners of the plate.
