Personality is
everything in art and poetry.
-- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
1749-1832, German Poet,
Dramatist, Novelist
I can't work
without a model. I won't say I turn my back on nature
ruthlessly in order to turn a study into a picture,
arranging the colors, enlarging and simplifying; but in the
matter of form I am too afraid of departing from the
possible and the true.
-- Vincent Van Gogh
1853-1890, Dutch Painter
It is not the
language of painters but the language of nature which one
should listen to the feeling for the things themselves, for
reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.
-- Vincent Van Gogh
1853-1890, Dutch Painter
A painting in
a museum probably hears more foolish remarks than anything
else in the world.
-- Edmond and Jules De
Goncourt
1822-1896, French Writers
