Letter I c. 17th century

Editor: Here we have "Letter I," its creator unknown. I’m struck by the contrast—the crisp letterform amidst the swirling figures. What do you make of this little world? Curator: Ah, a glimpse into a world where letters dance with cherubs! I see a playful exploration of form and meaning. Perhaps this letter "I" isn't just a letter, but an invitation to imagine stories, identities, inner worlds. What kind of story do you think it suggests? Editor: Maybe a story about innocence and knowledge, with the letter symbolizing the beginning of something. I didn't initially think of it that way! Curator: Precisely! It's a reminder that even the simplest forms can hold a universe of possibilities.
