Art and Poetry - Hodler and Verlaine

Work by Ferdinand Hodler, "The Stockhorn Chain", 1905 on a poem by Paul Verlaine, 1874.
.
"In the endless
Boredom of the plain
The uncertain snow
Shines like sand.
.
The sky is copper
Without any glow.
You would think you were seeing life
And the moon dies.
.
Like the clouds
The oaks float gray
Next forests
Among the mist.
.
The sky is copper
Without any glow.
You would think you were seeing life
And the Moon dies.
.
Windy crow
And you, skinny wolves,
By these sour kisses
What is happening to you?
.
In the endless
Boredom of the plain
The uncertain snow
Glows like sand"

Ferdinand Hodler, "The Stockhorn Range", 1905.
