Quote from Antoine de Saint Exupery: Wind, Sand and Stars, 1939
Have you ever thought, not only about the airplane but whatever man builds, that all of man's industrial efforts, all his computations and calculations, all the nights spent working over draughts and blueprints, invariably culminate in the production of a thing whose sole and guiding principle is the ultimate principle of simplicity?
It is as if there were a natural law which ordained that to achieve this end, to refine the curve of a piece of furniture, or a ship's keel, or the fuselage of an airplane, until gradually it partakes of the elementary purity of the curve of the human breast or shoulder, there must be experimentation of several generations of craftsmen. In anything at all, perfection is finally attained not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away, when a body has been stripped down to its nakedness.
I am a self-taught photographic and digital artist who loves finding color where color isn't. In my eyes, every color needs to be a little brighter.

Bob Orsillo
The design, the peeling and cracking of the paint make for a most interesting photograph. Makes me think of the excitement the person who bought this felt and the story behind he story. Great quote! - v/f
Gwyn Newcombe replied:
Thanks Bob ... wish I had a story to go along with previous stories about this furniture, but I just couldn't afford it ... ;-(
