The passage of time has aided the hand of the artist to create a radiant masterpiece. Though surely its graceful lines and elegant proportions made it attractive to the age that crafted it, the centuries have added a moonlit iridescence and an unseen, but deeply-felt glow of rarity, that are integral parts of its beauty. In our own age-- long after it was first made--it seems perfect at last. - (G.0234)
