| I succeeded in obtaining a point de vue...from my workroom in
Gras using my C[amera] O[bscura] and my largest stone. The image of the objects are
represented with a clarity, an astonishing fidelity, complete with myriad details
and with nuances of extreme delicacy. To get the effect, one must look at the stone
from an oblique angle... and I must say my dear friend, this effect is truly something
special.
