Evening Star, luster vessel 951 (13")
by Paul J. Katrich, inspired by
the Edgar Allan Poe poem.

"Poe is a writer of such gifts and accomplishments
that it is difficult to give him adequate credit.
Beyond the stereotypes and haunted themes, he
often transcends in unexpected ways. This vase
is a gentle tribute to one of my favorite authors."

[Description by Paul J. Katrich]

Evening Star

by Edgar Allan Poe

'T was noontide of summer,
And mid-time of night;
And stars, in their orbits,
Shone pale, thro' the light
Of the brighter, cold moon,
'Mid planets her slaves,
Herself in the Heavens,
Her beam on the waves.
   I gazed awhile
   On her cold smile;
Too cold— too cold for me—
  There pass'd, as a shroud,
  A fleecy cloud,
And I turned away to thee,
  Proud Evening Star,
  In thy glory afar,
And dearer thy beam shall be;
  For joy to my heart
  Is the proud part
Thou bearest in Heaven at night,
  And more I admire
  Thy distant fire,
Than that colder, lowly light.

in the homes of many of my patrons.
