In the early days of our relationship I sent my now-spouse a postcard of this painting. I have no idea why but it has stayed and resonated with us even though we have never seen it in person and even though neither of us is super big on the Pre-Raphaelites in general.

(I don't think she even knows about the Keats poem or the story in the Decameron or anything.)

Now we are old and grey and full of sleep and still any time one of us sees the other handling basil (harvesting from the pot in our window garden; chiffonading for little a garnish; plucking off the nascent flowers to keep it from bolting) we'll say "OH HI THERE ISABELLA!"

William Holman Hunt, Isabella and the Pot of Basil, oil on canvas, 1867, Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle upon Tyne.
