Description
Maria Mitsotaki and James Merrill. Merrill's face is bound as a result of Bell's Palsy, an episode recounted in "The Thousand and Second Night" (see also the manuscript pages for that poem).
"[Maria] was pert, pretty, small and sweet...and able to choose her friends. [Jimmy] adopted her as a mock mother, making himself small in her presence, as if he were her boy, her puppet."
