10885Stillwater ME: Nancy Ruth Leavitt 2018. 14-1/2" x 10-7/8." Numbered 1 of 2 variants and signed by Leavitt. A full cloth box with recessed manuscript paper label on the front; the box opens into a diptych with batik fabric as a background to both sides. Recessed into the right side is Leavitt's hand-lettered rendering of Dickinson's poem on handmade paper by New England papermaker Katie MacGregor. Opposite is a collage of hand-cut paper layered into blossoms feathery leaves and stems sewn in silk—all of which is in white. Bright and unworn. <br /> <br /> Quite a remarkable presentation of the beloved Dickinson poem. A supremely gifted lettering artist Leavitt's manuscript version of the poem done in white gouache on MacGregor's green paper gives Dickinson's words a lightness that is echoed across the diptych with the white dimensional blossoms on the rich green blue and pink fabric with verdant shapes of flowers and foliage. The hand-cut blossoms with their ethereal stems seem to float on the backdrop. It is a beautiful celebration of that quality that Pandora managed to keep in her box. It seems fitting that Leavitt and Dickinson's "hope" is also held in this box. Nancy Ruth Leavitt unknown
