Artifact 6. :D

This is a painting of Edgar Allan Poe as a child. When he was only a little boy, he lost both of his parents. From there, his life was no better.

  1. When I was younger, I saw many dancers who inspired me to become a dancer. With out my mentors and idols I could not have changed the way of ballet in the way I did. I am Sure you too were influenced and inspired by other journalists and writers.

  2. Mr. Edgar Allan Poe, I feel so sorry for you. Your lost both your parents and then you died at age 26. I made it to age 36 actually. There wasn't good health upkeep and people died at young ages. So, what was the cause of your death?

  3. Poor baby! I lost my mother when I was very young, so I feel your pain, at least partially. However, my dad encouraged me to be rebellious and different! I see that you did the same, but in a different way...
