A god-like face, but oh, how human still!

I am busy working to bring John Boyle O'Reilly's "Written Under a Portrait of Keats" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about John Boyle O'Reilly's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Written Under a Portrait of Keats" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
