FINNEGANS WAKE

Tuesday, 14 January 1941

The heavy overnight snow decorated the benches, iron gates, parapets, statues, and great columns of trees on the Quai des Tuileries. The solemn fishermen, some with two poles in hand, stood as great blue herons on the bank of the River Seine. The mounds of snow brightened the mood of the gray city, softened the beat of soldiers, and disguised the misery of the occupation with poetic images.

mounds of snow

shroud the statues

stone parapets

pont de la concorde

crown the gates

ordinary memories

last overnight

liberty on the seine
