the Sake of a SINGLE VERSE IS A PORTFOLIO OF TWENTY-four lithographs
from THE HAGGERTY MUSEUM OF ART's collection created by artist Ben
SHAHN. The prints illustrate a select passage from Rainer Maria
Rilke's only novel, The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge (1910). This
semi-autobiographical novel tells the story of a college student from
an aristocratic Danish family living in destitute in Paris in the
early 1900s. The book made a profound and lasting impression on SHAHN.
Although SHAHN FIRST READ THE NOVEL WHILE VISITING PARIS IN THE 1920S,
he didn't create the illustrations until 1968--a year before his
death. Free admission, open daily. Mon - Wed, 10am - 4:30pm Thurs,
