Do we see a reflection of Monet's late water lily paintings, or is it a fantastic topographical map rising out of mist? In any case, we can accompany the painter in his "unsteady game of thoughts" if we follow the traces of the brushes interwoven in several layers to form a dense web of colour and let our own thoughts play.
