Montblanc pays homage to Gaius Maecenas with the 20th
edition of their Patron of the Arts series, who was a personal
advisor to Octavius as well as a supporter of young artists.
Each pen features a white marble lacquered barrel typical
of roman architecture as well as an inlaid Roman coin
featuring Maecenas' image. The first verse of a poem from
Virgil, written in honor of Maecenas, is inscribed on the cap
sterling silver and highlighted by a sword shaped clip.
