| Description | Drawing entitled "Helen" by B. J. R. (Bernard Jacob Rosenmeyer, 1872-1943) used as an illustration for Edgar Allan Poe's poem entitled "To Helen".
(Editor's note: The identity of "Helen" has variously been ascribed to Jane Stith Stanard, the mother of one of his classmates, who had encouraged the teenage Poe in his poetry writing and whom Poe considered his first real love, and to Mrs. Sarah Helen Whitman, a poet and widower whom Poe courted.) |
