DescriptionA color photograph of writer Eugenia Parry Janis with a written inscription and signature by Janis underneath. Janis is sitting on a bed smiling.

The inscription reads:

Nothing more real to me then my pen on a page, fierce and alive like a trout on a line, not interfered with like the stride of a Lippet [sic] Morgan as we said together in a cavalette. Nothing more real than my night table, a cool blue wash on my face earnestly surveying the scene of strategies, of dreams, of gifts to give away; the sides of my fleet of ships.
Eugenia Parry Jannis, August 1989
