The logical and natural conclusion of the analysis until now
conducted throughout the relation between science and art
is a return, a sort of restitution as usually occurs at the end
of a path, even of our own life. Giving back what we’ve been

one only purpose: man.
Therefore, Agape is not only a feeling, but also a virtue,
a spiritual state, a gift of God, a grace. The work assessed

involving perception, light and harmony is not unintendedly

summarizing the Jungian idea which depicts humans as
the result of a collective unconscious and which John Donne
described in his Meditation XVII: “No man is an island

of the main….”.
