ART GALLERY / Text translated by Google / Amazed by the beauty of radiolarians, I had always promised to one day use their complex form and aesthetic jewel glass miniature. A variety of Radiolaria, the cyrtoidea reproduced by the biologist Ernst Haeckel in his edition of 1899-1904, entitled "Kunstformen der Natur" will decide this table. This is to accommodate my little musicians in a bandstand worthy of their eccentricity that I chose this natural wonder. It is with great sorrow that I am forced to simplify it by detaching it from the top, and finally with anamorphic. Two operations required to bring it into harmony with my little anthropomorphic creatures. Let us turn to medieval texts, particularly those from the fourteenth century, to admire their borders bursting with illuminations. The artist emerges more often linger on the margins for these strange creatures, devils, monsters comic aspects profane, sometimes even trivial. We forget today that they have almost always a meaning: teasing, arguments or warning (a forgotten character biting an animal with it the sins of the flesh, if they ate meat!). All musical instruments, even whimsical, jokes are authentic vintage. Note the clear separation between the feminine and masculine.
Radiolaria: elements of a class of marine protozoa in plankton bio. These animals are between 1-5 mm ( 0,04-0,2 inches), rarely more! They have a siliceous skeleton, which is not visible externally. It is intimately included in the cytoplasm, to find out, just destroy the soft tissue, appears extraordinary architecture that only nature can create in such beauty. The accumulation of thousands of dead radiolarian eventually lead to a rock called "radiolarian”.
