Vintage Art Nouveau Lithograph Style, Highly Decorative Borders, Rich Earth Tones and Gold Leaf. A vertically split "before and after" composition illustrating the classic fable of "The Wind and the Sun."

The Left Side (The Wind's Force): A personified North Wind, depicted as a swirling, ethereal figure made of cold blue and silver clouds with puffed cheeks, blows a jagged, visible blast of air downward. Below, a traveler on a dusty road is hunched over, his face strained, gripping his heavy woolen coat tightly around his chest as the gale whips his hair and sends autumn leaves flying in a chaotic spiral. The colors are cool, muted, and turbulent.

The Right Side (The Sun's Warmth): A personified Sun, depicted as a serene, radiant golden face surrounded by a massive, ornate circular halo of sunbeams, looks down with a gentle smile. Below, the same traveler is standing tall and relaxed on the path. His coat is draped loosely over one arm, his shirt collar is open, and he is wiping a bead of sweat from his forehead. The landscape around him is bathed in warm gold and vibrant greens, with tiny flowers blooming at his feet.

The Framing: The two scenes are separated by an elegant, winding vine border. The overall mood shifts from the frantic, cold energy on the left to the peaceful, overwhelming warmth on the right.

An Asian Slice
At the dark end of an alley on a moonless night,
A youth squats low to the ground, turned toward the wall with his face in his lap.  Someone might think he’s sleeping.  He’s smoking heroin.  Soon he’ll fall over and soil himself, and stay right there until dawn.

Back at the neon-lit mouth of this dark alley, 
hookers walk back and forth, hurrying to get past the alley, either for fear or because is smells so bad.  Eyelids, all painted golden, Asian whores always look like they’re made of candy.  Candy it is; but a snarling cat awaits its prey.

As modest as a violet
And now, thou who hatest insolence; thou who dost abound in mercy; thou who art the protector of all things; appear quickly
