KEYWORDS: architecture; art; art criticism; art education; arts; beauty; fine art; painting; sculpture; value
The splendours of the firmament of time.
May be eclipsed, but are extinguished not;
Like stars to their appointed height they climb,
And death is a low mist which cannot blot
The brightness it may veil. When lofty thought
Lifts a young heart above its mortal lair,
And love and life contend in it, for what
Shall be its earthly doom, the dead live there
And move like winds of light on dark and stormy air.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
