“Without the aid of the imagination all the pleasures of the senses must sink into grossness.”

— Mary Wollstonecraft, Letters Written in Sweden

When through the water's thickness I see that tiling at the bottom of a pool, I do not see it despite the water and the reflections there; I see it through them and because of them. If there were no distortions, no ripples of sunlight, if it were without this flesh that I saw the geometry of the tiles, then I would cease to see it as it is and where it is—which is to say, beyond any identical, specific place. I cannot say that the water itself—the aqueous power, the syrupy and shimmering element—is in space; all this is not somewhere else either, but it is not in the pool. It inhabits it, it materializes itself there, yet it is not contained there; and if I raise my eyes toward the screen of cypresses where the web of reflections is playing, I cannot gainsay the fact that the water visits it, too, or at least sends into it, upon it, its active and living essence.

Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan by Ilya Repin

Easily one of my favorite pieces of art to exist. Look at the fear in his eyes, the horror, that as one of the many interpretations goes, he struck and killed his own son. That the blood of his own blood is currently seeping out in front of him. It's so viscerally and devastatingly human. Not that (hopefully) you or I have ever fatally struck someone, but the reminder that we are capable of it. That we are, as humans, are capable of harm. Especially when our own pride, self-righteousness, and anger blind us. To me, this image is a reminder that humility is a protection for ourselves and others.
