The pleasure given by René Notto's artwork to those who see it in person will be magnified a thousand times beyond that of those who have only seen it in photographic reproduction, and who yet remain astonished at his paintings, the studies of Greek architecture in particular. The absence of figures, human or otherwise, enables thoughts of figures to be imagined in the multitude of places, the steps, terraces, windows and doorways M. Notto provides us. Our curiousity is urged from the contentment of his pure architecture; he allows imagined figures to be seen. No need to populate, the narrative of the human condition is brilliantly evident: old Argos the dog waits patiently for Odysseus at the bottom of Ithacan steps, Bastet the Egyptian cat goddess, slender and elegant, sits on a Parian terrace; "Here I am", she mews, "Here I am, look at me", while Lila Kedrova passes Zorba his glass, and Mnemosyne, in memory's doorway, tells her unforgotten tales to us all.
