LOVELY LADIES SERIES Hodlers Horizontals

Hodlers Horizontals

Hodler's five ladies in blue*
'a view into infinity'  so true
A linked handed cinquain
their beauty in memory remain


The "ladies in blue" by Swiss Symbolist painter Ferdinand Hodler most famously refers to his monumental final masterpiece, 'View to Infinity'

Ferdinand Hodler had no self doubt
his topical art had much clout
He also loved the silhouette
narrative allegoryhus safe bet
