This deifies these figures as they lounge nude in multicolored grass…

    3. Apprehending one’s own self in intuition. Dispensing with the habitual view of a stable selfhood and replacing it with a model of an ever changing, evolving self, Bergson reviews our perception of epistemological processes and divides them into the perception of the outside features of an object and the perception of an object originating from within.
