again, this image has been here before
taken in the Louvre a couple of years ago
so small and at the same time monumental
L'espace m'a toujours rendu silencieux
Jules Valles, L'enfant, p.238
Immensity is within ourselves. It is attached to a sort of expansion of being that life curbs and caution arrests, but which starts again when we are alone. As soon as we become motionless, we are elsewhere; we are dreaming in a world that is immense. Indeed, immensity is the movement of motionless man. It is one of the dynamic characteristics of quiet daydreaming.
