Compositions with golden flowers and herbs by Lin Sproule (video)
August is the last month of summer. In the first half of the month there is a strong heat, but from the first days of the month, signs of impending autumn are already visible. The weather in August is changeable and freakish. A day, alas, is waning. Evening dawns go out earlier, twilight lengthens, dews thicken, water bodies cool down in fog. The sun argues with the clouds. And suddenly one day you notice that the nights have become cold, and “star rain” is frequent in the clear sky.
August is the transition, the beginning of twilight, when everything, including life, takes on a patina of mystery, freezing for a short time in this unreal luxury of beauty, when all objects and nature are seen as gorgeous. At this moment the breath of nature stops for a moment to allow us be enchanted with its beauty and mystery on the verge of freezing.
One can talk endlessly about this month, which is finalizing summer. Hence, it is better just watching the video "Golden Flowers of Lin Sproule", which will remind you of the bright sunny days of the passing summer.
Lyn Sproule is a contemporary British sculptor and jeweler, born in 1942. A series of interior works in the form of golden grass and flowers, created by Lin Sproule, is very popular with art connoisseurs around the world.
