Shakespeare Sonnet 73 (LXXIII) on Parchment Decorative Pillow
What would life be without poetry in general - or Shakespeare in particular?
A while back, I decided to make products using Shakespeare's sonnets, but I felt my design was a bit unfulfilled at the time, so I revamped it a bit to something more to my liking. Traditional yet original. The background is a parchment texture I made a while back, and I also found a calligraphic typeface for it that has the almost unique feature of having both historical gravity as well as modern legibility.
Obviously there are lots of sonnets to get through, so if you like this design, but cannot find your favourite work by the bard already made in it, please email me at mail@galleryhakon.com to let me know and I'll get to it right away.
This particular one is sonnet 73 (LXXIII), which reads:
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou see'st the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west;
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death's second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire,
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the death-bed, whereon it must expire,
Consumed with that which it was nourish'd by.
This thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well, which thou must leave ere long.

This is a great pillow, I love the size. It looks great on my couch and it is the perfect color. The pillow is well-made and soft. The printing on this pillow turned out better than I expected. The colors are vibrant and the printing is crisp.

Great quality, colors, and graphics. I bought this for my storytime area in the elementary school Library where I work. It sits on my great grandfathers rocking chair which is also the storytime chair. Students who have shown good behavior get a turn in the chair and immediately snuggle with the pillow (all Covid safe of course). It been washed/sanitized several times already and still looks brand new. Highly recommended for any Library, nursery, reading nook, wherever you want a bit of cheer and added comfort! :). I went with the advertised print of "Storytime" as it was going in my Storytime area. But it can be customized/personalized and the printing is well done. Clear and no smudges, and in an "old school" typewriter font--love it! Reminds me of my own home town Library decor from my childhood.
