Seize the Book Poster (blue)
Among the world’s wordsmiths, those of the Roman Empire achieved more success than perhaps any others banging upon the fiery stone of pithy admonition. Alongside such gemstones as “Per astera ad astra,” “Sic semper tyrannis,” and many others besides, “Carpe diem” stands a head above the rest as a wordspool of wisdom to be wed to. Translated as “Seize the day,” “Seize the moment,” “Pluck the day,” or, among Classics students who forgot to do the assigned reading, “Carpet the day,” the saying has provided sage counsel throughout the generations.
Reimagined here as Carpe Librum, “Seize the book,” our design features the sort of ink-swell that would do well in the library, book nook, or kitchen of any literary denizen who knows that living well, reading well, and thinking well are inseparable companions.
Offered in sizes 8 x 10 inches and 16 x 20 inches (centimeter aficionados may make the requisite conversions at their leisure), our inkish partners have printed this museum-quality poster on thick and durable matte paper. Arriving at your door in bold primary colors that would make one flush if one’s life choices weren’t already knee-deep in boldness, this design is destined to become a beloved part of your domestic or workplace environs.
Also available in red.
