“Floris lachte en zeeg in slaap in zijn zetel. Pieter bezag het hoofd van de kunstenaar. Hij streelde hem stillekens over zijn roze gezicht, en prevelde vol medelijden: ‘Arme Baskonter, arme paddestoel, die teert op Michelangelo; arme Icarus, die met wassen vleugelen ten hemel stijgt, naar de zon, die ze smelt’ – op een rijnse prent had hij die ongelukkige sukkeleer getekend – ‘en al die renaissancisten zijn van dezelfde deeg! Waarom blijft ge niet beneden : de wereld is zo schoon!’ …
En in zijn verbeelding zag hij de schone straat van Messina weer levendig voor d’ogen; en daar beneden, in ’t water, te midden van de pracht, zag hij, hulpeloos en klein, twee roze beentjes spartelen van de arme Icarus die in ’t water gevallen was! Hij schudde de komende vaak van zijn huid, stond op en ging de kriekende, frisse morgen in.
Een nieuwe schilderij begon te groeien.”
