Its story
Once more in the Painter shines, this time, a more distant yellow star. Its light began its journey 144 years ago, when Pasteur was testing the first rabies vaccine and Karl Benz was patenting the first combustion automobile. Akin in colour and temperature to the Sun, its glow recalls a candle placed at the far end of a very long room, distant yet present.
