This picture evoked mixed feelings of gentle sadness which were too closely akin to my age and my experience for me not to make a comparison. I saw myself at the close of an innocent and unhappy life, with a soul still full of intense feelings and a mind still adorned with a few flowers, even if they were already blighted by sadness and withered by care. Alone and neglected, I could feel the approach of the first frosts and my failing imagination no longer filled my solitude with beings formed after the desires of my heart." --Jean-Jacques Rousseau, "Second Walk", Reveries (1776-8) |
