Excerpt from Stanisław Wyspiański’s letter:
When I imagine my life as a painting, how can I invite to the realm of my thoughts and pull towards me a girl who does not live on colours, sounds, imagination, melody, or on depicting the form – but on the form itself, and who lives a vegetating life, which I look upon with equal compassion as upon the life of a flower or an insect. (…) How many times was I enamoured of a flower by pity, and only by pity did I sometimes love a girl that I once spotted somewhere.
After that, he asks the question:
Is this enough to live on?
