Overview
Lyn is a well-known poet and painter who lives in St Andrews. 300 years after Velazquez painted Las meninas, which has been described as the most important painting in the development of modern art, Picasso's made 58 paintings based on it. These poems enter the paintings: the artists and characters speak to the reader and to each other. The characters in Velazquez's original speak in their historical context, true to fact, and in the poetic register of the time. Those in Picasso's variations are as varied and anarchic as the paintings themselves. The painters are aware of each other and from time to time address each other.
