All those intimate secrets and memories buried in a sofa!

Liebestraum

Her perfect hands, the strength and stamina of her right arm and her long hair together with her dress give her the appearance of being a concert pianist. The flowers on the cushion are the imagined flowers of the applause; they also indicate the nature of her dream: love poetry expressed in music. The initial ”L” of her arm reveals the music she is dreaming of playing perfectly: L = Liebestraum (Dream of Love) and L = Liszt. The most famous of these pieces contains a passage which evokes what the photo also can be read to depict: la petite mort. Art can be the sublest expression of life.
