Autumn brings with it the closure of the season of light and heat.
With autumn we start to winter, in a season still characterized by a few days of light and warm sun, but with the presence of more and more cold and dark days.
The warm colors of autumn seem to want to console by the light that, every week that passes, covers less and less hours during the day.
Autumn means transition, but also beginning: schools and work resume after the summer return, the months to come are planned.
During the autumn it is physiological to withdraw more and more into oneself, even the climate suggests it.
It is therefore a season of transition from a more frivolous and sunny dimension to a more shady and profound one .
The culmination of this passage is the winter, from which the wheel of days will start again, the cycle towards a new opening with spring and summer. And every year the wheel retraces itself.
