Among the great poets of literary history,

However, there's an early 20th century great French poet

He was a close friend and collaborator of artists

and he was even suspected of stealing the Mona Lisa in 1911.

he created poetry that combined text and image

in a way that seemingly predicted an artistic revolution to come.

In the late 19th  and early 20th century Paris,

the low-rent districts of Montmartre and Montparnasse

were home to every kind of starving artist.

These painters, writers,  and intellectuals, united

in their artistic passion and counterculture beliefs,

And their works of art, literature, and intellect would shake up the world.

within this dynamic scene, art critic, poet, and champion of the avant-garde,

Guillaume Apollinaire was a well-known fixture.

the cubist and surrealist movements to the world,

and rose to the defense of many young artists

in the face of what was often a xenophobic and narrow-minded public.

As a poet, Apollinaire was passionate about all forms of art

and a connoisseur of medieval literature,

especially calligraphy and illuminated initials.

As a visionary, Apollinaire saw a gap between two artistic institutions.

On one side was the popular, highly lauded traditional art forms of the time.

On the other, the forms of artistic expression made possible

and new inventions,  like the cinema and the phonograph.

through the creation of his most important contribution to poetry,

Apollinaire created the calligram as a poem picture,

and his desire to push poetry beyond the normal bounds of text and verse

Some of them are dedicated to his young dead friends,

like "La Colombe Poignardée  et le jet d'eau."

Some of them are the expression of an emotional moment,

"It's raining women's voices as if they had died even in memory,

and it's raining you as well, Marvellous encounters of my life,

Those rearing clouds begin to neigh a whole universe of auricular cities.

Listen if it rains while regret and disdain weep to an ancient music.

Listen to the bonds fall off which hold you above and below."

Each calligram is intended to allow readers to unchain themselves

"Lettre-Océan" is first an image to be seen before even the words are read.

Text-only elements combine with words in shapes and forms.

Two circular forms,  one locked in a square,

the other, morph beyond the page in the shape of a spiral.

Together they create a picture that hints towards cubism.

the image of an aerial view of the Eiffel Tower.

They give tribute to electromagnetic waves of the telegraph,

Undoubtedly, the deeply layered artistic expressions in Apollinaire's calligrams

are not just a brilliant display of poetic prowess from a master of the form.

Each calligram itself is also a snapshot in time,

encapsulating the passion, the excitement,

and the anticipation of all the bohemian artists of Paris,

including Apollinaire, most of whom are well ahead of their time,
