A watercolor drawing of a satyr's head and torso, close up, on cotton rag paper. On top of the image is the text " Epigrams; Marcus Valerius Martialis" and at the foot of the image is the Magra Books logo, including the black and white image of a trout with a book in its mouth.

"A bartender and a butcher, a bath and /
a barber. A game board with pieces, /
and my own small selection of books..."
