Edgar Allan Poe
Oil painting dedicated to the genius and immortal writer Edgar Allan Poe.
"They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. In their grey visions they obtain glimpses of eternity, and thrill, in awaking, to find that they have been upon the verge of the great secret. In snatches, they learn something of the wisdom which i of good, and more of the mere knowledge which is of evil. They penetrate, however, rudderless or compassless, into the vast ocean of the “light ineffable;” and again, like the adventures of the Nubian geographer, “aggressi sunt mare tenebrarum, quid in eo esset exploraturi.” "
(Edgar Allan Poe)
