"My most beautiful electric lamp with its red eye"
"I shall set out my most beautiful lamp to shine a red eye towards Tegnér Square...I may perhaps stand in my living room window" (Strindberg, before his 63rd birthday and the planned people's torchlight procession - 15,000 people; "Strindberg stood at the rail of his balcony, acknowledging them"); from Dagens Nyheter, 23.1.1912 & Sue Prideaux, Strindberg, A Life.

"The other novelty, the lift, offered itself a s a splendid, new, multi-purpose symbol signifying the levels of consciousness, Buddhist reincarnations and stages of spiritual progression on the ascension to Heaven or the descent to Hell: going up, going down" (from "Strindberg, A Life", by Sue Prideaux).

"Troubled skies
and crashing waves" -
Strindberg's favourite
subjects,
When walking to
Rosendal's Trädgård,
From Karlaplan or
Drottninggatan,
Eyes fixed firmly
straight ahead,
Dreaming Kymendö
and Sandhamn
(Runmarö, Dalarö,
Furusund, Huvudskär)?
Trees as symbols of
the wild, high seas.
