Limbs of the stately and their superluminous veins

repurposed (and digitally recoloured) detail of a sketch by baroque painter Ottavio Vannini, combined with a -sort of- recyclo-poem on my website schnada.de : Glieder der stattlichen und ihre über-leuchtenden adern where you'll find a link to (a public domain b/w photo of) the original 1622 drawing as well.
