Abstract

The sublime is what surrounds us when an image gives us a mood with a strong emotional impact, when we see something that brings back memories or some senses, we have the impression that time stands still and that we are above all the things. We see daily things that gain our interest and we would like to sit and linger for a long time watching them. The fact that we are surrounded by beauty and beautiful things makes us more and more strict with ourselves and with our work in order to have control over the things in our lives, for example, to have a physical appearance that makes our life enjoyable and by which we are delighted to have a very good image of ourselves. All the time we live we have the feeling of the sublime, something truly great, something that makes us aware of our lives or the moments in which we live.
