 | This weekend we visited some friends who have a lovely house up in the Santa Cruz Mountains. From their deck one can look out over a sea of trees cascading down the valley towards the Pacific Ocean, with fog curling in from the bottom, gradually floating up through the valleys. Looking out over this, I felt like the man in Caspar David Friedrich's painting, which I remember from the cover of the Penguin edition of Nietzsche's Ecce Homo Caspar David Friedrich : Reisender über dem Nebelmeer, 1818 |
