Summary
[edit]DescriptionGertrude Vanderbilt Whitney Panel Fountain of El Dorado 1915 Juliet Helena Lumbard James.jpg |
English: Panel of the fountain of Ed Dorado: "In the panel are seen men and women in their mad race for the unattainable. Many have had a glimpse of the Gilded One, and are rushing on to pass the mysterious gate behind which the desires of life await them. Some faint by the roadside or stop in their race for the goal to contend or to loiter by the way, but those nearest the El Dorado increase their speed. Beside the gateway that has only just allowed the Gilded One to pass thru are two mortals who have come close to the land of their desires, but only to find the door shut and slaves beside it barring the way. Their strength is expended, their courage gone in the long race for material things." (Text from same source as photograph, 1915) |
