Metaphysical implications
The glass, in its limpidity, appears to negate its own substantiality, allowing light to pass through unimpeded. It becomes a paradoxical entity – present yet almost absent, a container defined by the void it encloses.
“The aesthetic fact is altogether spiritual; all that is physical in it is a mere vehicle, a means to stimulate the spiritual activity.” – Benedetto Croce
