This diptych explores the violent transformation of the world during the Industrial Revolution, capturing the clash between city and countryside. The tentacular cities devour the hallucinated countryside, draining villages of their populations. Through stark, intense verse, Verhaeren transforms the pain of modern urbanization into a panoramic vision of humanity caught between tradition and industrial progress.
