Paris
des anges
Time upon them has done its work. It has left its mark on
bodies, and century injured faces also grow old. Those angels have ended
their heavenly journey and put an everlasting imprint upon stone, marble,
wood, metal, which glazes the ancient frailty of their bodies. Only light
adorns the figures, paints the feathers one by one, recreates the glances,
and little by little their mouths let out a breath thought to be lost for
ever in clear ether, suspended in bright sky.
