Shit iPhone picture taken from a moving car, but whenever I see it I think of this passage from The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas (abridged):
“Imagine all the ages of time in miniature, and in unending procession…all the passions, the tumult of empires… Such was the spectacle…and what I beheld then was the living condensation of all time. To describe it, one would have to make the lighting stand still”
