your bricks so shy
while passing by
the inner cry
time is floating — T. Jager

Relief sculp­tures tell best when they get a side light. This relief is, unhap­pily, on a wall fac­ing north and is best pho­tographed only in the sum­mer­time — either early in the morn­ing or in late evening when, for short spells, it catches the sun.
This leads me to say that archi­tects often for­get about the sun when choos­ing a site for a sculp­ture. I think it is because they design their build­ing indoors and often choose what looks like the right spot for a sculp­ture only from their plans, for­get­ting the exis­tence and direc­tion of out­door sunshine. 

— Henry Moore
