In the foreground we see time and life <br />swept in a race <br />toward the left hand side of the picture <br />where shore meets shore. <br /> <br />But that meeting place <br />isn't represented; <br />it doesn't occur on the canvas. <br /> <br />For the other side of the bay <br />is Heaven and Eternity, <br />with a bleak white haze over its mountains. <br /> <br />And the immense water of L'Estaque is a go-between <br />for minute rowboats.<br /><br />Allen Ginsberg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cezanne-s-ports/
