An Artist’s Legacy
A check of today's New Yorker penbots yields
an entertaining piece on pop culture by Sarah Larson:
Perhaps, in death's dream kingdom, there is some guidance from
the illustrator who reportedly did the book cover in the previous post —
one Hector Garrido.
"Operation Childlike Innocence, Phase One."
— Sarah Larson, quoted here on Sept. 5, 2015.
Garrido's dies natalis was reportedly 19 April, 2020.

Romancing the Symmetry
From a story about mathematician Emmy Noether and 1882, the year she was born—
"People were then slowly becoming 'modern'— fortunately they had finally discovered not just that there are no Easter bunnies and Santa Claus, but also that there probably never were women who were led to evil ways by their curiosity and ended up, depending on their level of education, as common witches, as 'wiccans,' or as those particularly mysterious 'benandanti.'"
"… in the Balkans people believe that the souls of the dead rise to heaven in the guise of butterflies."
— "The Fairytale of the Totally Symmetrical Butterfly," by Dietmar Dath, in Intoxicating Heights (Eichborn AG, Frankfurt 2003)
An insect perhaps more appropriate for the afternoon of Good Friday— the fly in the logo of Dath's publisher—
