 As art critics, Arghezi and Theodor Cornel published a comprehensive biographical study on their patron (part of their "Figuri contimporane din România" dictionary, 1909).However, according to Corina Teacă, the encomium-like and conveniently imprecise entry may have been sent in, or at least approved of, by Bogdan-Pitești.Arghezi also made his sponsor the hero of a small eponymous poem, wherein he is called "Lombard bastard cu ochi de rouă" ("bastard Lombard with the eyes of dew").
