"When the dawn seemed to the fingers (petals?) of the rose???????"
Help, please translate, Marina! I don't know French and I'm curious to know the title.

I love this composition. You've painted the three little figures with your usual combination of intensity, wisdom and cherubic innocence. The idea of using a baby or small child as a vehicle for imparting ideas and archetypes is brilliant. I also like the way you have conveyed a feeling (for me) of time confusion. Is that Greek lettering on the torn-off posters? That and the graffiti on the cement seem to imply a time in the distant future. There is a bleakness to the world as if a great civilization has been wiped out, but there is a new possibility of beginning.

Even if you have only a limited time to work, it seems that you are producing a string of masterpieces.
