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

SYMBOLIST SWEETHEARTS
In looking we see and
in seeing we now will
be . As part of the art.
This pleasure evolves, 
as we participate ,hear 
with our eye to resolve a
mystery ; sensations symbolize,
then synthesize the illusion
into a new experience
A momentary intercourse
of minds imaged again
with perceptive intuition
by our eyes,ever to remain
indelible,unique and concrete.

THE LADY OF SHALOTT
mirror-images were her curse
so wove her pictures in reverse
LA BELLE ISEULT
William's 'stunner',became wife Jane
but for painting,he found no acclaim
MADONNA
Madonna's personna
a single reflection-
gives meaning to life
PAVONIA
Leighton's lovely
Italian beauty we all,can see
LONELY LASS
closing her door
in her mind-
she slowly withdraws
MAXENCE
pretty as a prescence
with her auburn looks
