You have a literary visual imagination, then. It really feels like there are three or four stories behind this, or intersecting there... The story of the earth, collapsing to create the sinkhole... The story of the builder of the house... The story of the public servant or the pilgrim who placed the altar/landmark... The story of the observer standing in the mouth of the cave... The story of the follower, who is the viewer...



Do you have prints of it available anywhere? This is something I would love to hang in my library or office, to remind me of the sense of wonder not always immediately visible in the world, and as inspiration.
