“Ces jeux des ombres, que la photographie a banalisés aussi, avaient intéressé Elstir au point qu’il s’était complu autrefois à peindre de véritables mirages…”
(À l'ombre des jeunes filles en fleurs, 403)

“This play of light and shade, which photography has also rendered commonplace, had interested Elstir so much that at one time he had delighted in painting what were almost mirages...” (Within a Budding Grove, 571)
