Joseph Carey Merrick
**SOLD**
26"w x 33"h
Joseph Carey Merrick (1862-1890)aka The Elephant Man
"Tis true my form is something odd
But blaming me is blaming God;
Could I create myself anew
I would not fail in pleasing you.
If I could reach from pole to pole
Or grasp the ocean with a span
I would be measured by the soul;
The mind's the standard of the man."
This quilt was sold at auction to benefit Artspace Inc. and hangs in a private residence in Raleigh, NC.
