Reflection What is the definition of beautiful ? My mind hungry of discovery searches an answer. I observe the works of different artists : sculptor, painter and I realize that they draw their inspiration from a main model, that of nature. Then, I remind a sentence read at random from an old religious to the French painter Joseph Vernet : "Believe me, if you want understanding what is beautiful, go see the sea, listen it". What model could seem more beautiful that the Creation ? If you want to understand what is beautiful, go see the forest so mysterious in its heart, so frightening when the light pierces with difficulty the thick canopy of leaves, so soothing by the crystalline refrain of its limpid stream... Go see the mountains so hight and so near of sky that their immaculate summits are encircled by cold haze. Finally, go see the distant deserts whose burning and relentless expanse forces us to recognize our helplessness.

What is the definition of beauty? My mind, hungry for discovery, searches an answer. I observe the works of different artists; sculptors, painters, and I realize that they draw their inspiration from one main model: nature. Then, I remind a sentence read at random from an old religious to the French painter Joseph Vernet : "Believe me, if you want understanding of what is beautiful, go see the sea, listen to it". What model could seem more beautiful than Creation? If you want to understand what is beautiful, go see the forest, so mysterious in its heart, so frightening when the light pierces with difficulty through the thick canopy of leaves, so soothing by the crystalline refrain of its limpid stream...
Go see the mountains so high and so near the sky that their immaculate summits are encircled by cold haze.
Finally, go see the distant deserts whose burning and relentless expanse forces us to recognize our helplessness.
