Richly coloured skeins of silk...

 


From Stevens's moody costumes "of blue and yellow, sky and sun"; from his belts, knots, sashes and seams; from his "half pales of red" and "half pales of green", from all these words now to colour itself: to glowing skeins of silk wound, then woven; to the weft and warp of radiant squares and squarves. To Lyon's hidden opulence.
