Although beauty is Wells' major theme in her poetry collection, she also delves into the darker side of various artists' lives and their works with depth and precision. In conjunction, Wells interweaves her own personal life into her travel poems, which illustrate her creative and emotional responses to her travels at different times in her life-from young adult in France to older woman confronting aging and mortality in Barcelona. Her poetry encompasses various poetic styles-lyric, narrative, and surprisingly for a book on European travels, even haiku. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNight at the Musée d'Orsay\u003c\/em\u003e contains five sections: The first section, \u003cem\u003eFrance\u003c\/em\u003e, highlights artists in Paris-Van Gogh, Chagall, Renoir, Matisse and novelist Balzac. \u003cem\u003eItaly\u003c\/em\u003e, the second chapter, features poems about Rome, Orvieto, and Assisi, spotlighting contemporary organist Giampaolo Di Rosa in Rome, and Renaissance painter Luca Signorelli in Orvieto.
