Quote

Art ought never to be considered except in its relations with its ideal beauty

The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection

To send light into the darkness of men's hearts - such is the duty of the artist.

Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known

The history of art is the history of revivals

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.
