Tristan and Isolde/Desire with borderThe story of Tristan and Isolde shows how desire drags everything along its unyielding path, creating unstoppable movement where there was once stagnation. Tristan had known loss—triste, sad; tristan, sad one. He pledged his loyalty to King Mark of Cornwall, who cared for Tristan as his own son. One day a dove flew into Mark’s window, carrying a strand of gold hair. He asked Tristan to find the hair’s owner, for only she would be his wife. The hair belonged to Isolde, daughter of King Mark’s fiercest enemy.

Paola and FrancescaThe story of Paolo and Francesca was inspired by history. Francesca Da Polenta of Ravenna was married to Giovanni Malatesta to strengthen their families’ political bonds. But she loved Giovanni’s brother, the handsome Paolo. Tempted by love, Francesca and Paolo’s story could only have a tragic ending, which still moves hearts seven hundred years later. These true events inspired the poet Dante, who retold their sad story in The Divine Comedy.
