THE ARTIST'S VISION

“In her face, still flushed with the day’s heat, there is no vanity, only a profound and simple peace. Her beauty asks for nothing, for it is everything. It is the toil of the harvest and the grace of a goddess made one. In that moment, he knows that all the sunsets and vineyards he has ever loved were merely crude rehearsals for the breathtaking, living truth of her.”
