Note du spécialiste

This image was commissioned by the Franklin Mint in 1974 for a series of sterling silver medals honoring Robert Frost. Each of the twelve medals represented a Frost poem, the present illustrating A Time to Talk. The poem begins, "When a friend calls to me from the road/ and slows his horse to a meaning walk,/ I don’t stand still and look around/ on all the hills I haven’t hoed,/ and shout from where I am, 'What is it?'/ No, not as there is a time to talk."
