The small mountains are lush, full of texture and relief, as if to signify the richness of life in all its diverse creation. Landscapes in bright colors stand out against the large areas of black sky. Here, the skies have lost their blue color. They are no longer the realm of the gods. They remain opaque to the gaze of men, darkened by unanswered questions and the secrets they hide. But perhaps we should not be mistaken about the meaning of existence: the starry night, far above the blue-tinted mountain, remains out of reach, cut off from men by the silver ray. Whereas the golden ray that dives onto the small green mountain indicates that the essential takes place down here.
