Work Description

j'avais chausse mes pantoufles et endosse ma robe de chambre. J'essuyai une larme dont la bise qui soufflait sur le quai avait obscurci ma vue. Un feu clair flambait dans la cheminee de mon cabinet de travail. Des cristaux de glace, en forme de feuilles de fougere, fleurissaient les vitres des fenetres et me cachaient la Seine, ses ponts et le Louvre des Valois.
