Rome is the wide-open mouth of eternal words, the hard stone where everything has remained — ruins, fragments —where nothing is lost.

The intense melancholy of Herakles by Skopas, the sunken eyes beneath the arched eyebrows, those pathetic eyes turned toward the sky, led me to imagine Hercules in the crucial moment when he found himself faced with death. It is in that moment that he takes onto his shoulders all the suffering of the world, freeing it.
