In my own image

“Here I sit, forming men
In my own image,
A race to be like me,
To suffer and to weep,
To know delight and joy
And heed you not,
Like me!”

Friedrich Nietzsche, The Birth of Tragedy, 1872

Enrico Prampolini - Still from Thais, l Perfido Incanto - 1916

César Domela - Ruth - 1928 
(at the Café Aubette?)
