Beauty


4 years ago an architect-artist did a sand sculpture of Domaine Carneros, a vineyard and winery that makes sparkling wine, in the Carneros region in Napa Valley, California. It was on exhibit for several days in the parking lot of the winery. One afternoon Cheri and I and a couple of friends passed by the winery to see the sculpture and took some photos.

Beauty even so temporary as this sand sculpture is still beauty. “What’s art but praise,” writes Ruskin.

(quick intake of breath) Oh my! How very beautiful ... I cannot imagine having the patience and finesse to scult that! How lucky you all were to happen upon it!
