La descente de la Pinède Print

"The trail started at the edge of the woods, not far from a clear-water river. Very quickly, it became steep and crossed forests and clearings ... It sometimes wandered, giving rise to branches whose destination was unknown to those who borrowed them. Only some of them knew exactly which way to go. At the turn of the trail, they discovered the clear lake below, the black, misty, mysterious mountains to the west, and the more welcoming and bright mountains to the east. They were finally returned to the "paths from above," a distant, secret plateau in which it was good to stroll and shelter from the trees when the sun was at its peak. They were always tempted to stay there but the sunset brought them back, submissive but rejuvenated, to the valley." Text from Aline Demarais
