Dr. Dain L. Tasker :: Floral Studies

Throughout the 1930s Dr. Dain L. Tasker, a radiologist, used fine-focus X-ray tubes to produce floral studies on X-ray film. Published in "U. S. Camera" and "Popular Photography" Tasker''s work was hailed for its beauty. "Flowers are the expression of the love life of plants," he once wrote. Sublime in their minimalist sensibility, these images of flowers are ethereal, ghost-like representations. The inherent transparency of Tasker's chosen medium also reveals the strength of the plant's structure, lending the image a sort of eroticism and dynamic modernism.

Diario Notturno 317

Oblomov suscitò un tale interesse in Tolstoi che il ritratto di Oblonski nell'Anna Karenina sembra uscito dalla penna di Gončarov: "Una perfetta indifferenza per gli affari di cui si occupava gli permetteva di non appassionarsi a niente e di non commettere errori di conseguenza." 
La percezione del limite, l'indulgenza verso se stessi, la consapevolezza dei propri difetti, utile per fermarsi in tempo e ricavarne dei benefici è tipico dei grandi scrittori russi. È la stessa lezione che si ritrova in Brodskij quando descrive il proprietario d'una biblioteca fatta di soli sessanta volumi: "Giusto il numero necessario e sufficiente per un gentiluomo; tutti i libri in più l'avrebbero trasformato in un penseur, con conseguenze disastrose per il suo equilibrio o per il suo patrimonio."
