True Artists Are Almost The

I Would Have To Talk For A Year To Repeat A Single On Of My Works With Words.

The Artist Is The Confidant Of Nature, Flowers Carry On Dialogues With Him Through The Graceful Bending Of Their Stems And The Harmoniously Tinted Nuances Of Their Blossoms, Every Flower Has A Cordial Word Which Nature Directs Towards Him.

An Artist Worthy Of The Name Should Express All The Truth Of Nature, Not Only The Exterior Truth, But Also, And Above All, The Inner Truth.

If The Artist Succeeds In Producing The Impression Of A Movement Which Takes Several Moments For Accomplishment, His Work Is Certainly Much Less Conventional Than The Scientific Image, Where Time Is Abruptly Suspended.

As Paradoxical As It May Seem A Great Sculptor Is As Much A Colourist As The Best Painter, Or Rather The Best Engraver. He Plays So Skillfully With All The Resources Of Relief, He Blends So Well The Boldness Of Light With The Modesty Of Shadow, That His Sculptures Please One, As Much As The Most Charming Etchings.
