A painting by Edmund Dulac,
I'm sure Yeats wished the world looked like this.
A drawing and letter from Florence Emery. We see that Yeats may have a dark humor to him. In response to her cancer and mastectomy she writes "Last December I became an Amazon and my left breast and pectoral muscle were removed. Now my left side is a beautiful slab of flesh adorned with a handsome fern pattern made by a cut and 30 stitches."
