There is him, this is a Moment in which everything come to a Standstill. The cook wants to give the kitchen boy a slap in the face, the Hand remains but a short time before the face. The blazing flames in the fireplace a halt halfway up, and even fly not fly, but are dormant. Still totally stand – so it is in the fairy tale “sleeping beauty”, as the 100-year-old sleep begins.
