Description
Owning the moon as a property right, a cage in place of a casket, the irony of the title — are we masters of those we love? In a room with a wooden floor and doors open onto the night sky sits, in half-profile, a dark-haired woman in a pale grey silk gown on a yellow armchair; beside her, on a second ornate chair, stands a turquoise cage with a full moon imprisoned inside.
