L’Horizon 

René Magritte painted "L’Horizon" in the 20th century, conjuring a striking image of a seaside scene. At its heart we see a large wooden structure, resembling a door or barrier, dominating the foreground. Two figures stand before it, backs turned as if contemplating what lies beyond, embodying a theme that echoes through art history: contemplation and the threshold between worlds. The image is reminiscent of Caspar David Friedrich's "Wanderer above the Sea of Fog," the solitary figure contemplating nature's vastness. Here too we see a quest for meaning and understanding. The wooden structure, in its stark simplicity, might echo the "Door to the Temple," a symbol of initiation and passage, found in ancient mystery rites. Magritte invites us into the realm of dreams and existential questions, urging us to consider our own horizons.
