Artwork Description:
In the city, one is always a mere particle in a great whole, on which one is dependent, to which one must contribute, and from which one must accept something. The solitary wanderer in the desert stands quite alone he is in a manner freed from the ties which bind him to any great human community he must fill up the void by his own identity, and seek in it that which may give his existence significance and consistency.
Georg Ebers
