All of My Glasses are Reading Glasses

Two hands hold open a blue-tinted open book, its pages filled with the handwritten phrase "all of my glasses are reading glasses" split across the spread. The illustration is rendered in Inciardi's loose, expressive line work with watercolor-style washes of soft blue and warm gold for the hands, set against a clean white background. A small blue bookmark peeks out from the top of the pages, and the composition has an intimate, slightly tilted quality that feels spontaneous rather than rigid.

Reading glasses are among the most universal of everyday objects, the kind of thing misplaced and rediscovered constantly by anyone who depends on them for close work or, naturally, for reading books. The joke embedded in the image lands on multiple levels: the book as the delivery mechanism for a sentiment about the very glasses one might need to read it. This Ana Inciardi mini print fits comfortably alongside her broader catalog of text-driven and everyday-life subjects, where humor and familiarity carry as much visual weight as the illustration itself.

Collectors drawn to her wordplay pieces tend to seek out this one specifically because the gag is self-contained and the image reinforces the text in a genuinely clever way. The handwritten lettering inside the book mirrors the caption printed beneath the image, which gives the whole piece a unified, journal-like feel that her fans respond to strongly. It pairs naturally with her other prints built around text, objects, and domestic humor, often grouped together by collectors who appreciate that thread running through her work.
