"I know Him not"
...And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter ...
Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
Luke
Two worlds. On the right, the banners for the Just, who has to disappear. On the left, the repentant friend.
Utterly collapsed, full of remorse, Peter clasps his mantle : a bundle of misery, pathetic but not desperate.
A huge yellow crescent hangs in the air like a cry. A cloud, heavy as a "rock" weighs on Peter, on whom Christ will build his church.
The Lord, with the promise of the resurrection in himself, turns and looks lovingly upon Peter.
