Kubla Khan

Artist: Morgan Linn
School: North Allegheny

Notes:

I layered a lot of images on top of one another to depict as much of the scene as I could from the first stanza of the poem Kubla Khan, written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

That stanza is pasted below.

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan

A stately pleasure-dome decree:

Where Alph, the sacred river, ran

Through caverns measureless to man

Down to a sunless sea.

So twice five miles of fertile ground

With walls and towers were girdled round;

And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,

Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;

And here were forests ancient as the hills,

Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.

I like how the longer you look at the image, the more you notice.
