n. 841 Early in the morning

No treasure is more beautiful than another; it takes on a different meaning for each of us. For the artist, this small engraving acquires a rare value for what it represents: vast spaces bathed in light, a silent atmosphere, and the joy of the beauty of the dawning day. The man is in a state of blissful solitude; in the dim light, the paintings evoke past lives and glories. Beyond the feelings it expresses, the engraving offers a play of light and shadow that harmoniously intertwine. The velvety tones are rendered sumptuous by the colored background. Yes, there is no greater treasure than the one we dream of.
