(“Colors green and yellow.” Don took the picture of the ceramic cat as it sat on a brick wall cutting across grass as indicated in the tracing on page 206. This particular roll of Polaroid color film had been exposed to heat; Don took the chance that it would still give legible pictures. As it was the color print used as object has a dull, overall brownish cast, yet the local colors are still visible, to a reduced degree.

(“The impression of stairs or steps. Something ascending in this fashion, you see.” Here Jane gestured positively that something rose on the object at perhaps a 30-degree angle, perhaps less. This is my estimate. There are no steps shown on the object, but the brick walk is in perspective, and rises perhaps at a 20-degree angle from left to right. The separate bricks in the walk, which are not cemented together incidentally, could perhaps have led to the use of stairs or steps.

(Jane’s gesture, incidentally, was a smoothly rising one, as the brick walk smoothly rises on the object. She did not indicate the angular construction of stairs, for instance.

(“and with square objects, in design fashion.” The bricks in the photo are rectangular, not square. As stated they are not cemented in place but set together irregularly; the pattern they make is a nicely designed one. The walk is in front of the trailer the Wilburs inhabit in a nearby small town.

(“and graduating, as something graduates in size perhaps.” Since the brick walk in the photo was photographed in perspective, there is a graduation in the size of the bricks. They are largest in the lower left hand corner of the object, tapering up to the right border.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(Seth continues in answer to the first question: “A visual connection, with square or rectangular objects in the center of a larger area”, refers to the rectangular bricks marching up across the center of the object. “with modern connotations as a design might have.” refers to the very modern, rounded or circular design of Marilyn’s ceramic cat. “Perhaps connected with spindly lines or strings.” refers to the abstract pattern created, in line form, by the narrow crevices and shadows around the individual bricks, all these lines being interconnected.
