From Friday’s New York Times op-ed page:

THE SEASONS | ANSELM KIEFER

Before Spring

Anselm Kiefer, “Snow Melt in the Odenwald,” 2010, gouache on photographic paper. Courtesy Gagosian Gallery, New York.

Text on the work is translated as follows: Snow melt in the Odenwald. Goodbye, winter, parting hurts but your departure makes my heart cheer. Gladly I forget thee, may you always be far away. Goodbye, winter, parting hurts.

Nice ad for Gagosian. Just like this is.
