allegory for Life, a painting by Pierre Marcel   Life : an allegory with matches

Posted by Marie Roure on July 24, 2002

You say,  "...and the burnt matches are here to show it that (...) The personal qualities of a soul are made up of many little actions, thoughts and experiences that happened long ago and build up one's life glow. Many opportunities are still awaiting proper use, as matches ready to burst into flame. We may just need to take them one by one, day by day. We could contemplate with remorse the lost ones, the piling up of the scorched: debris of our life, but it is too late."
: you must be RIGHT.
I should think of it.
This painting is fascinating me today...
Without all that black, who could imagine any new light to come?
