Resonant Serpent

Cat herder. Gypsum manipulator. Organized noise. Nyctophiliac.

The solution lies outside politics.

Flectere si nequeo superos, Acheronta movebo.

On such a beautiful day like today my mind is drawn back to one of the most beautiful autochromes ever taken: a study of artists on the banks of the Dordogne at Beaulieu in France 101 years ago. The light, the colour & the composition are works of art in itself!
I have cleaned up this stunning photographic plate showing an artist at his easel being painted in turn by a woman at hers. In the distance is the St Pierre Abbey church. It captures a moment of true serenity and beauty.
You will notice, because of the long exposure time required by Autochromes, that the female painter has become a double-exposed through motion blur. It was taken in colour Jules Gervais-Courtellemont in 1925 using an early colour glass-plate process and isn't colourised. It remains one of my favourite works.

People will literally hate you for your ability to stand alone, move quietly and stay to yourself.

Reminder that when you say something is ‘fascinating’ you are actually saying you have been enchanted by this guy – Fascinus, the embodiment of the divine phallus. ‘Fascinate’ derives from the Latin verb ‘fascinare’, meaning to bewitch through the magical power of the fascinus.
