THE COLOUR OF LOVE

 

MINOLTA DIGITAL CAMERA

 


In our life there is a single colour,

as on an artist’s palette,

which provides the meaning of life and art.

It is the colour of love.

 

(Marc Chagall, 1887 – 1985 – considered to be the quintessential Jewish artist of the TwentiethCentury)

I took this photograph in April 2004 at  the beautiful  Keukenhof Gardens, just outside Amsterdam.

  3. Beautiful picture and beautiful poem. Thanks for sharing : )
    with great affection Ginny

    • I was making Christmas Cards today Ginny. And all the time I was thinking .. .. now what would Ginny do. Which glue would she use. Is this the right background. It was a rush to get them made and into the post. What ever happened to my “slow” Christmas preparations. Hugs Virginia

  4. Yes, yes! Love endures with its color. Thanks for sharing thoughts of love.

    • It is an interesting way of describing love. Marc Chagall was very much a Renaissance man. He worked in stained glass, as a sculpture, as an artist, and an insightful writer. I am so glad you enjoyed. V.

  5. Beautiful words! I think it’s my favorite color, too!

  6. Isn’t Keukenhof a magical place? I think that I was so distracted by the beautiful blooms during my visit, that I somehow lost sight of the elegant swans. :)

    • Easily done in that park Tricia. There is so much to see. I particularly loved the orchid house. I had never seen such exquisite flowers in my life. V.
