Imagine going sailing off to explore the coastal villages. Do you hope for good weather, some unique treasures to delight you? I sure do. This painting also took me on time travel. Imagine when the first explorers left Europe to find new lands that offered them riches of gold, silk, and spices. Wasn't that a journey of discovery? If you go deeper into this metaphor of journey of discovery, each day offers us just that. We need to go deeper within us and discover more than just what we see. The high quality prints of this painting are excellent representation of the original painting. Print size is 8"x10". The matted print is 11"x14".
"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.' - Marcel Proust
I love this quote and its deep meaning. It's a matter of perspective. Each voyage is filled with ups and downs, as is life. It is up to us how we handle each situation. Changing the perspective changes everything.
