Abstract
In 1893, painter Maurice Denis collaborated with his friend, the novelist André Gide, for the illustrations of Le Voyage d'Urien. This short novel narrates the story of a symbolic and fantasised journey, which leads Urien and his fellow travelers to land on an island struck by the plague. With the lithograph on page 48, representing four plague-stricken individuals, I argue that Denis transposed his theories on the decorative, formulated in his "Définition du Néo-Traditionnisme" in 1890. I contend in this essay that through this lithograph Denis synchronizes multiple temporal levels by representing the same figure four times. On the level of the subject, the agony of the plague-stricken relates to a private time distinct from society’s public time. Moreover, the sequencing of the disease into four stages partakes in the journey towards absolution. Regarding the composition of the work, the decorative elements belong to their own temporality which is integrated on the spatiality of the page and recalls a so-called “archaic” and “primitive” time.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
