Chronograms are anagrams that use Roman numerals, with each Roman numeral’s letter standing for a letter of a word in the anagram. Roman numerals may concoct a suitable sentence for any remarkable event you select. For example, Queen Elizabeth I’s death was in 1603, Roman numerals MDCIII. A chronogram for the year of this queen's death might read: "My Day Is Closed In Immortality."

Raphael, the famous Renaissance artist, died in 1520, MDXX: "My Deeds eXceed eXpectation."
