Images rather than language.

I was happy to find so many beautiful works by Fröbe-Kapteyn at the Casa Anatta on Monte Verità. This one spoke to me especially. It's hard to pinpoint exactly why - and perhaps it's even better not to try to put it into words, since Fröbe-Kapteyn was somebody who thought in images rather than language. But clearly this work is concerned with love and curiosity, two of the pillars of life, if you ask me.
