ART has two constant unending preoccupations; it is always meditating upon death and it is always creating life. Boris Pasternak. Death and life always exist side by side in The Leopard. Decline and renewal are everywhere. The past inhabits the present. The dead surface. The living are dying. The imagery on the page, adorning the rooms dead but living, animated by tromp l'oeil effects and Art everywhere.

The think they are gods, their vanity is stronger than their misery describing the inability of Sicilians to change their lot after 2,500 years of foreign intervention oppressed by poverty, indifference, the stultifying heat of long summers. I thought how appropriate this line is today to the politics of voting against your own interests identifying a political stance of middle aged males around the world.
