After Vermeer's "Maid Asleep" To make it right Vermeer painted then painted over this scene a woman alone at a table the cloth pushed back rough folds at the edge as if someone had risen in haste abandoning the chair beside her a wineglass nearly empty just in her reach Though she's been called idle and drunken a woman drowsing you might see in her gesture melancholia Eyelids drawn she rests her head in her hand Beyond her a still-life white jug bowl of fruit a goblet overturned Before this a man stood in the doorway a dog lay on the floor Perhaps to exchange loyalty for betrayal Vermeer erased the dog and made of the man a mirror framed by the open door Pentimento the word for a painter's change of heart revision on canvas means the same as remorse after sin Were she to rise a mirror behind her the woman might see herself as I did turning to rise from my table then back as if into Vermeer's scene It was after the quarrel after you'd had again too much to drink after the bottle did not shatter though I'd brought it down hard on the table and the dog had crept from the room to hide Later I found a trace of what I'd done bruise on the table the size of my thumb Worrying it I must have looked as she does eyes downcast my head on the heel of my palm In paint a story can change mistakes be undone Imagine Still-Life with Father and Daughter a moment so far back there's still time to take the glass from your hand or mine

This poem is considered one of the shorter poems included in the first book of poems published by Wallace Stevens. The poem meditates on Stevens's increasing awareness, also notably expressed in "The Anecdote of the Prince of Peacocks" (1923), that there are significant differences between imaginative activity and ordinary experience. This theme can be understood as signalling that writing poetry has dangers. Poetic drowsing is liable to attack by the Indian, or by Berserk in "Peacocks", defeating imagination's task of transforming the ordinary.

The mausoleum, attached to the chancel of Stadthagen parish church St. Martini, is a domed heptagon in Italian renaissance style designed by Giovanni Maria Nosseni. Four of its walls are furnished with Latin inscribed epitaphs for Prince Ernst, his parents, and his wife, framed by aediculas with Italian marble columns. The central monument by Adriaen de Vries consists of a huge pedestal bearing the cenotaph of Prince Ernst - simultaneously conceived as the tomb of Christ: the cenotaph is surrounded by four drowsing Roman guards, and a larger-than-life figure of Christ triumphant surmounts its top. The dome, painted with fourteen musician angels, represents heaven.
