A man sets himself the task of portraying the
world.
Through the years he peoples a space with images
of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships,
islands,
fishes, rooms, instruments, stars, horses, and people.
Shortly before his death, he discovers that the
patient
labyrinth of lines traces the image of his face.
Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) in Dreamtigers.
