Summary

Part 1 of a lithograph in three sections commissioned from Richards by Tambimmuttu, editor of the Magazine Poetry London, to illustrate Dylan Thomas's poem. The inscription on this print reads

The hand that whirls the water in the pool
Stirs the quicksand;
That ropes the blowing wind
Hauls my shroud sail
