Auguste Rodin’s Eternal Spring is the perfect image on Valentine’s Day for lovers everywhere.
From a photograph I took during our visit to New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art
last Sunday, together with the Museum’s description.
“The human body is, above all, the mirror of the soul, and from the soul comes its greatest beauty.”
Auguste Rodin, from Rodin on Art, Horizon Press, 1971

No day shall erase you from the memory of time…Virgil
This quote from Virgil, which I posted on thechangingpalette three days ago, is displayed in the hall of the 9/11 Memorial Museum. It seems appropriate to post it once again to accompany today’s images.
Back in the studio after a whirlwind visit to New York. Over the next few days I’ll post some of the memorable images but in the meantime here is one of my favourites, yesterday afternoon’s Central Park jogger. Like the Red Cyclist it was one of those lucky moments. The scale of the solitary figure against the trees and buildings I think justifies its inclusion in this week’s photo challenge.
I wish!
No day shall erase you from the memory of time…Virgil
So moved by our visit to the 9/11 Memorial Museum today.
