Comments:
From imagination.

Inspired by the mystical, devotional poetry of St John of the Cross (12th Century Spanish Christian mystic). The soul, personified as a female figure, wanders alone along the seashore, seeking God-filled solitude. The elongation of the figure suggests the yearning of the soul for God.
