In , Hermann Hesse described his intimate connection with his surroundings and his experience of nature in these words: "Everything we see is expression, all of nature an image, a language and vibrant hieroglyphic script" from: Butterflies. His days were filled with long walks and hikes on the Collina d'Oro, with encounters with nature, its beauty and the diversity of life forms, which opened up new paths to a deep inner realization.
Hesse processed these experiences not only in his paintings, but above all in his detailed descriptions of nature, which tell of trees, clouds and butterflies, both in dedications and in his most famous works such as Siddhartha or Klingsor's Last Summer. This reading on the occasion of the 62nd anniversary of his death honors the landscapes that were so close to Hesse's heart and that reflect his intimate connection to nature.
