confusionis:

And she had moved, a living Maid had been:

One would have thought she could have stirred; but strove

With Modesty, and was ashamed to move.

Art hid with Art, so well performed the Cheat,

It caught the Carver with his own Deceit:

He knows ‘tis Madness, yet he must adore,

And still the more he knows it, loves the more:

The Flesh, or what so seems, he touches oft,

Which feels so smooth, that he believes it soft.

- from “Pygmalion and the Statue,” Metamorphoses, book X, Ovid.

The Louvre

Day 102/365

I’m not sure where in the Louvre this is other than somewhere between the Victory of Samothrace and the Mona Lisa in my wanderings. I loved the muted light coming through the frosted skylights in this gallery.

You can see the whole 365 here.
