Excerpt from The Glimpse: An Adventure of the SoulA turnstile clicked me into the central hall, under whose dome the concert had been arranged. Opaline stuffs, ballooning downwards from the dome, changed the sunlight into silver. Hung about the large room were forty paintings by Charles Conder, which I had already seen. A Conder exhibition had closed on the previous day. It was an exquisitely luxurious idea: abasing those pictures, each a marvel of in tricate and lovely fancy, to be the background of music. Conceive, in the expectant hush, the gleaming Bechstein piano with its lid pointing upwards, the rows of gilt chairs empty or occupied, the border of floor, and then the ring of Charles Conder's women voluptuously brooding in their weak but eternal beauty amid impossible landscapes of ivory, lavender and rose.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
