Your research is in no way misbegotten....Ah Willie! Your research is in no way misbegotten. But one can't speak of trompe-l'œil without consulting Pere Borrell de Caso's "Escaping Criticism" --1870s. Where we dismiss boundaries between real and unreal is where the mind is most accurately described. Math, physics, gardening can instruct and coordinate, but art and imagination is where it all comes together.

And found the wisdom of the philosopher gardener once again in the images and lines themselves! I read and re-read, enjoying the poem's lovely trompe-l'œil of it all!Williehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13672263724813424429noreply@blogger.com
