The field of action of a photograph should be that chessboard of the heart and mind upon which poetry and art have always operated.

Compagna Romana
Antiquity is here a bee that hums
From flower to flower above the Roman plain.
The living sleep, safe on the sunny ground,
Lulled by the murmur of the falling years.

To move through life is to travel the road of restlessness—
For measuring such a year, lightning is the sun.
