A Man Can Do All

Painting Contains A Divine Force Which Not Only Makes Absent Men Present, As Friendship Is Said To Do, But Moreover Makes The Dead Seem Almost Alive.

Painting Is Possessed Of Divine Power, For Not Only Does It Make The Absent Present, But Also Makes The Dead Almost Alive.

Beauty Is The Adjustment Of All Parts Proportionately So That One Cannot Add Or Subtract Or Change Without Impairing The Harmony Of The Whole.

We Must Always Take From Nature What We Paint And Always Choose The Most Beautiful Things.

No Art, However Minor, Demands Less Than Total Dedication If You Want To Excel In It.
