"Voci"- The Italian word for rumors; "voices." The piece features the writing of the artist Michelangelo. The text is a letter the artist wrote to his father during his time in Rome. Rumors of his death had emerged, and, worried, Michelangelo's father wrote to him. "Just don't talk to anyone about me," snapped the artist in reply. "I'm alive."Acquisition
