Title

The Temple of Time

Description

Willard's map, the Temple of Time, shows her skills as a cartographer, and the way she believed time was structured. She believed that facts were all connected to one another, and could be stored in the "temple" (or the mind) for future recall. This reflects her curiosity of the antiquities in her time abroad.
