Translation of the Transcription:

FIR WOODS.

I ENTER INTO THE REDDISH-BLACK CATHEDRAL OF THE DENSE FIR WOODS, WHICH LIVE ABSENT OF NOISE AND REGARD THEMSELVES IN A FACIAL EXPRESSION. THE EYE-TRUNKS, GRASPING EACH OTHER TIGHTLY, AND THE VISIBLE WET AIR EXHALE. – THE WELL-BEING! – EVERYTHING IS LIVING DEAD.

Egon Schiele 1910.
