About this piece

Four rounded flowering plants in white pots punctuate the stepped ledges beside a marble staircase, with blue water beyond. Strong sunlight sharpens the diagonal sweep of the white wall and casts cool shadows across the veined stone. Repeated forms lend a measured calm to the layered terraces.

The story

Late July light settles on the white walls, bright enough to make each patch of shade feel like shelter. The potted plants mark the descent in green intervals, their tiny pale flowers catching the sun. Beyond the diagonal parapet, an umbrella opens among golden grasses, and a narrow turquoise pool interrupts the white terraces. Farther out, the water gathers the light into countless small glints.
